Lumeris launches Ask Tom, giving health leaders conversational AI access to enterprise data

Lumeris has launched Ask Tom, an AI-powered analytics capability that gives health system leaders conversational access to enterprise data through its Tom Primary Care as a Service platform. The tool allows users to query complex healthcare data in plain English and receive instant answers, visualisations and recommendations. Ask Tom aggregates data from clinical, claims, pharmacy and social determinants sources to create a comprehensive view of patients and populations. The platform features agentic capabilities that continuously monitor enterprise data, detect anomalies and surface improvement opportunities. The launch addresses mounting pressure in US primary care, where nearly 100 million adults lack access and a shortage of 90,000 physicians is projected over the next decade. Ask Tom is currently available in limited preview, with broader availability planned for 2026.
