myLaurel named to Fast Company's 2026 list of the World's Most Innovative Companies. PR Newswire Today at 7:02am PDT Recognized as a Top 5 Healthcare Innovator, myLaurel joins category-defining leaders in Fast Company's prestigious 2026 list of industry-shaping organizations NEW YORK, March 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ - myLaurel is proud to have been named to Fast Company's prestigious list of the World's Most Innovative Companies of 2026, ranking in the top five among healthcare companies. This year's list shines a spotlight on businesses that are shaping industry and culture through their innovations. Alongside the World's 50 Most Innovative Companies, Fast Company recognizes 720 honorees across 59 sectors and regions. myLaurel has been named to Fast Company's list of the World's Most Innovative Companies of 2026. "Being named a top five most innovative healthcare company is an incredible honor - but more importantly, it validates a fundamental shift in how care can and should be delivered," said Juan Vallarino, Chief Executive Officer at myLaurel. "We believe the home can serve as a front door to high-acuity care - where vulnerable patients can safely recover with the clinical support they need. By extending the capabilities of the hospital into the home, we're helping health systems deliver better outcomes, expand capacity, and meet patients where they are - safely, effectively, and at scale." myLaurel is a leading provider of home-based acute and transitional care. Despite ongoing advancements in healthcare, systemic inefficiencies persist, leading to inappropriate utilization and over-reliance on acute hospitalizations and Emergency Department (ED) visits- challenges myLaurel is designed to address. By delivering timely, comprehensive care in the homes, myLaurel has eased the financial burden on payers and improved operational efficiency for health systems while significantly improving patient outcomes and satisfaction for patients and providers. Innovation in Action: Relieving the Burden on Health Systems As health systems face rising ED congestion and capacity constraints, myLaurel's tech-enabled clinical model has proven that a significant portion of hospital care can be safely transitioned to the home. Through in-home clinicians supported by remote physicians, myLaurel has redefined the acute care pathway. The impact is reflected in measurable outcomes for high-risk populations: * Capacity Creation: ~15 bed days saved daily, enabling incremental admissions for higher-acuity surgical and critical care. * Reduced Readmissions: 49% absolute reduction in readmissions, ~3% reutilization across 15-day acute-at-home episodes. * ED Diversion: A 33% lower ED utilization rate by diverting appropriate patients directly to provider-led home care. * Patient Experience: Net Promoter Score (NPS) of 97-99, (vs. healthcare industry average of 38-58). Partnerships with major health systems nationwide demonstrate the scalability of this model. Expanding from ED-to-Home to Inpatient-to-Home pathways enables health systems to protect value-based performance while freeing capacity for their higher-acuity cases. The World's Most Innovative Companies is Fast Company's hallmark franchise and one of its most anticipated editorial efforts of the year. To determine honorees, Fast Company's editors and writers review companies driving progress around the world and across industries, evaluating thousands of submissions through a competitive application process.

"Our list of the Most Innovative Companies is about spotlighting organizations that don't just adapt to change - they drive it," said Brendan Vaughan, editor-in-chief of Fast Company. "The companies we honor this year are redefining what leadership looks like in 2026, pairing bold ideas with measurable impact and turning breakthrough innovation into real-world value. They are setting the pace for their industries and offering a blueprint for what sustained innovation can achieve."
