Day 2 of McDermott HealthEx 2026 in Nashville.

We have spent over two decades in primary care, long enough to watch it become a 27-hour-a-day job that leaves physicians burnt out and patients underserved. The math has been broken for a long time, and that's the problem we built Tom to address. In a recent Second Opinion Media interview with Christina Farr, David Carmouche, MD, our chief medical and commercial officer, sat down to talk about what it will actually take for AI transformation in primary care to deliver meaningful impact. Read the full conversation in this week’s newsletter below. 

McDermott HealthEx 2026 kicks off today. Two days where health system leaders, operators, and investors take on real conversations about where care delivery and deal activity are going. John Fryer will join the Crossing the Risk Divide panel Thursday, May 21 at 3:30 PM CT along with Aparna Abburi (Sutter Health Plan), Mara McDermott (Accountable for Health), and Brad Dennis (McDermott Will & Schulte).

Rural America deserves the same standard of primary care as everywhere else and the workforce delivering it deserves the tools to make that real. This week, Lumeris joins rural health leaders at the NRHA Annual Rural Health Conference in San Diego to advance one of the most urgent conversations in healthcare: how we keep providers caring for the communities that need them most. On Thursday, May 21 at 3:30 PT, our SVP of Emerging Markets & Strategic Initiatives, Joe Satorius, presents "Fighting Burnout with Bytes: Using Generative AI." Joe will unpack how generative AI can take documentation and administrative load off rural clinicians and what responsible deployment looks like when the stakes are access, retention, and the long-term resilience of the rural workforce. If you're in San Diego, let's talk about what's possible when AI-enabled primary care meets the realities of rural delivery.

David Carmouche, MD, our chief medical and commercial officer, just wrapped a national satellite media tour, engaging in timely conversations about the future of primary care and the rapid evolution of agentic AI. With nearly 100 million U.S. adults lacking access to primary care and a projected shortage of 90,000 physicians, the urgency has never been clearer.    Catch a glimpse of the action: https://lnkd.in/eVqtZ8UG

Mental and emotional health are essential to living well. As we recognize Mental Health Awareness Month, it’s a reminder of how deeply our mental state shapes our daily lives and that seeking help is always a strong, healthy choice. We’re grateful for our provider and health system partners who continue to elevate mental health within primary care, ensuring patients receive support where it’s most accessible and trusted. #mentalhealthawareness #mentalwellbeing #lumeriscares

Looking forward to attending the National Rural Health Association’s 49th Annual Rural Health Conference in San Diego next week! On May 22 from 3:30–4:45 PT, I’ll take the stage with fellow industry leaders to discuss the topic, Fighting Burnout with Bytes: Using Generative AI. National Rural Health Association Rural clinicians are facing a growing workforce crisis — not because of a lack of passion or commitment, but because administrative overload is pulling them away from the work they love. Our panel will dig into how Generative AI can meaningfully reduce documentation and paperwork, giving clinicians back time, restoring satisfaction, and building a more resilient, long‑term rural workforce. At Lumeris, we believe technology should support clinicians, not burden them. I’m excited to share how AI‑driven tools can help keep providers doing what they do best: caring for their patients. If you’ll be in San Diego, shoot me a message! I’d love to connect. Learn more about the conference here: https://lnkd.in/gF54HtCi

Preventive care shouldn’t fall through the cracks. Yet overloaded clinicians, busy patients, and one‑way reminders make it one of healthcare’s biggest operational gaps. Our agentic AI platform, Tom, engages patients in two‑way conversations, answers questions in real time, overcomes barriers, and guides them all the way to scheduling—closing the loop on screenings and immunizations. The result: Earlier detection, higher completion rates, and more time for clinicians to focus on complex care.
