WellSky has expanded its partnership with Unison Health Services, a Los Angeles home health agency serving approximately 3,200 patients. Unison is deploying WellSky SkySense AI, including AI-powered ambient documentation, to reduce clinician burden and improve workforce retention. In five months, 35 Unison clinicians documented over 5,400 visits using the technology, reporting time savings of 15 to 20 minutes per chart. The agency plans to expand the tool across all clinicians and additional visit types. A WellSky client since 2014, Unison adopted the AI suite as part of its clinical innovation strategy. CEO Stephanie Carpentier said the technology has become essential for staff, with clinicians saying they couldn't imagine working without it, driving both retention and care quality.

WellSky has partnered with Google Cloud to integrate AI capabilities into its CarePort solutions, creating an AI-powered provider directory for hospital discharge planning. The system uses Google Cloud's Vertex AI, Gemini models and BigQuery to continuously update provider data, reflecting real-time changes in services, insurance acceptance and coverage areas. The technology addresses the challenge of maintaining current provider directories, which hospitals use to guide post-acute care discharge decisions. By automating data validation, the system reduces manual verification needs and helps hospitals match patients with appropriate post-acute providers based on real-time availability and expertise. WellSky serves more than 20,000 client sites, including hospital systems, home health franchises and post-acute providers. The company will showcase the new capabilities at the ACMA National Conference in Orlando from 20-23 April.

WellSky has expanded its SkySense AI platform to long-term care and skilled nursing facilities, embedding artificial intelligence capabilities within its electronic health record system. The technology aims to reduce administrative burden and improve clinician productivity across post-acute care settings. The platform includes three key features: WellSky Extract, which uses AI to capture information from documents and populate EHR data, saving an average of 30 minutes per admission; WellSky Scribe, which provides ambient listening and transcription that has reduced documentation time by up to 50% in home health settings; and WellSky Summarize, which generates medical record summaries for quality assurance and risk identification. The expansion supports WellSky's strategy to help providers adapt to value-based care models through improved data structure and operational efficiency.
