Partnership enhances data exchange for nation\u2019s largest 1115 Medicaid waiver implementation and establishes a replicable model for interoperable, statewide infrastructure in line with CMS\u2019 vision for value-based, digital first healthcare\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

NEW YORK, April 28, 2026<\/b> \u2013 <\/span>Un<\/span>ite Us<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Ready Computing<\/span><\/a> today announced a strategic partnership designed to strengthen service provider coordination and standardized data exchange across New York State’s health and community care system. By combining Unite Us\u2019 proven <\/span>closed-loop referral<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>payments<\/span><\/a> capabilities with Ready Computi<\/span>ng’s interoperability expertise, the partnership delivers a standards-aligned, scalable approach to integrating health and community-based services.<\/span><\/p>\n

The partnership is anchored in New York\u2019s 1115 Medicaid waiver\u2014the largest and most ambitious program of its kind in the country\u2014where the organizations are already working together to meet complex requirements for data exchange, provider connectivity, and outcomes reporting across a large and diverse network.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership is about more than connecting systems, it is about coming together to advance the industry by creating the infrastructure that communities, providers, and states need to truly work as one and prove their impact,\u201d said Taylor Justice, CEO of Unite Us. \u201cWhat we are building with Ready Computing in New York demonstrates what that can look like at scale, serving as a blueprint for how states can modernize care coordination without disrupting the providers and communities who depend on it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cInteroperability is only meaningful if it works in the real world,\u201d said Michael LaRocca, Founder and CEO of Ready Computing. \u201cTogether, we\u2019re building a foundation that connects complex systems, aligns with national standards, and gives providers and states the reliable data exchange they need to operate and scale with confidence.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

 <\/p>\n

Built for the Real World<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

Bringing data standardization to community care is essential to generating meaningful, comparable outcomes across the healthcare system. This partnership advances industry standards while remaining flexible enough to operate across diverse state infrastructures and varied data environments.<\/span><\/p>\n

In New York, that approach is already in action through alignment with the Gravity Project, an industry-led initiative that both organizations support that is helping ensure that data is structured and interoperable across systems. This enables more consistent data capture, stronger reporting, and greater visibility into the impact of community-based services, including the ability to demonstrate return on investment for the state\u2019s 1115 initiative.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cGravity Project exists to ensure that social care data is structured, standardized, and actionable across the entire care ecosystem,\u201d said Dr. Sarah DeSilvey, Gravity Project co-founder and Terminology Director. \u201cThe work Unite Us and Ready Computing are doing in New York is exactly what our standards are built for: translating a shared framework into real-world methods that enable consistent data capture at diverse points of service, meaningful outcomes reporting, and coordinated care at scale. This is how interoperability moves from aspiration to impact.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Just as important, this work reduces operational complexity for frontline providers. Embedding standardized data exchange into existing workflows lowers barriers to adoption across a wide range of organizations, from large health systems to community-based providers with limited technical capacity, while reducing duplicative data entry and streamlining coordination without requiring them to overhaul how they work.<\/span><\/p>\n

“For years, providers have worked with limited resources and fragmented systems that don’t talk to each other,\u201d said Lori Antrade, Executive Vice President at the Health Equity Alliance of Long Island (HEALI). \u201cStreamlining how data is shared means frontline staff can spend less time making systems work and more time caring for people. It also gives the state a clearer picture of the outcomes these services are driving.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

At the same time, state agencies gain the structured, real-time data they need to measure impact, demonstrate outcomes, and make the case for sustained investment in community care.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

<\/h3>\n

A Replicable Model for the Nation<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n

By combining interoperability with real-world usability, the partnership demonstrates how states can modernize data exchange without disrupting existing provider workflows. The framework is technically rigorous, standards-aligned, and adaptable across states with varying infrastructure, policy environments, and levels of system maturity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

“This collaboration between Unite Us and Ready Computing is going to allow seamless data sharing across ecosystems, including health care providers, CBOs, and New York State, which is key in connecting communities facing barriers to services that are essential for a healthy life,\u201d said Lynne Olney, Chief Transformation Officer at Healthy Alliance. \u201cHaving this data readily available throughout the entire care continuum allows visibility into each step of the member journey, ensuring every member gets the right service at the right time, and helps demonstrate the value and outcomes associated with whole-person care.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The implementation in New York shows how this approach can support large-scale statewide initiatives, enabling consistent data exchange, strengthening coordination across health and community-based organizations, and generating the insights needed to measure outcomes at scale. In doing so, it provides a practical blueprint for states advancing more integrated, interoperable system<\/span>s, expanding existing Health Information Exchanges to incorporate statewide Community Information Exchange models.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHealth information exchanges create the pathways for data to move across the healthcare ecosystem,\u201d said Todd Rogow, CHCIO, President & Chief Executive Office at Healthix. \u201cHealthix plays that role in New York by enabling secure, trusted exchange, while the Unite Us and Ready Computing collaboration strengthens how that data is integrated and applied to advance whole person care.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As CMS continues to prioritize accountability for healthcare outcomes and technology spend, this model provides a clear path forward. It reflects growing federal emphasis on integrated, interoperable systems and demonstrates how public-private collaboration can translate policy into operational reality by bridging healthcare and community care while building the data infrastructure needed to sustain long-term impact.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":12265,"template":"","categories":[],"states":[],"topic":[139,96,130],"class_list":["post-12264","press","type-press","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","press_cat-company-news","topic-medicaid-transformation","topic-partnership","topic-roi"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nUnite
