Ellipsis Health, the developer behind Sage—the emotionally intelligent AI care manager—has been chosen as a key partner in the Health Tech Ecosystem, a pivotal initiative within the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services’ (CMS) digital modernization efforts. The announcement marks a significant milestone in healthcare innovation, as Ellipsis Health joins a select group of influential stakeholders—including healthcare systems, insurers, and technology leaders—working together to drive patient-centered advancements. In Washington, D.C., CEO Mainul Mondal represented the company and worked with federal leadership and CMS Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz to explore strategies to transform care delivery for improved outcomes.
As part of its commitment to the CMS initiative, Ellipsis Health is developing conversational AI capabilities that integrate seamlessly with electronic health records, ensuring tailored support for individual patients while maintaining stringent privacy safeguards. The company is also focusing on targeted solutions for chronic conditions like diabetes and obesity, creating tools that discern when patients need digital guidance and when to connect them with human clinicians. These innovations are already being embodied in Sage, the company’s AI care manager, which is currently demonstrating its ability to engage with patients empathetically while upholding clinical accuracy and reliability.
Mainul Mondal underlined that the initiative shows how artificial intelligence can support human-centered healthcare, reflecting more than just technology advancement. He praised CMS for building a collaborative ecosystem that puts patients at the forefront, enabling real transformation in how care is delivered and supported across the nation.
Ellipsis Health is well-known for its unique Empathy Engine, which powers their emotionally intelligent voice technology. Sage is designed to increase provider efficiency, reduce administrative burdens, and deepen patient engagement. Recognized by leading healthcare organizations and payers, the company is driving change in managing the physical, behavioral, and social factors that contribute most to healthcare costs.
