Simplify Genomics and SimonMed announce collaboration to advance preventive healthcare through integrated genomics and imaging.

Simplify Genomics and SimonMed announce collaboration to advance preventive healthcare through integrated genomics and imaging. Simplify Genomics and SimonMed Announce Collaboration to Advance Preventive Healthcare Through Integrated Genomics and Imaging Combining whole genome interpretation with large-scale whole-body MRI to enable a more comprehensive view of human health. Discover more Public Finance South Asians & Diaspora Local News San Diego, CA - June 29, 2026 - Simplify Genomics today announced a collaboration with SimonMed aimed at advancing a more integrated approach to preventive healthcare. By combining SimonMed's national scale in whole-body MRI with Simplify's Whole Genome Interpretation and Reporting Platform, the collaboration seeks to provide a more complete picture of human health - helping identify risk earlier, personalize care pathways, and support more proactive health decisions. Across both imaging and genomics, there is growing evidence that early indicators associated with disease may be identified well before they surface in traditional care pathways. Together, these modalities offer complementary perspectives: genomics can provide insight into underlying disease risk, while imaging can help identify existing structural or physiological changes. Simplify Genomics has spent years developing and refining its clinical reporting platform as a CAP/CLIA-certified laboratory and has processed in excess of 50,000 whole genomes to date. The platform includes thousands of disease associations and a broad set of pharmacogenomic insights, designed to support clinical interpretation and integration within real-world care settings. Paired with SimonMed's leadership in accessible, AI-enhanced imaging at national scale - including a network of more than 175 imaging centers across the United States - the collaboration creates an opportunity to explore patterns and connections that may not be visible through any single modality alone, supporting earlier insight and helping to inform clinical decision-making. "This collaboration reflects a shared vision for the future of healthcare - one that is more proactive, data-driven, and personalized," said Travis Lacey, CEO of Simplify Genomics. "We believe the future of healthcare lies in making advanced preventive insights more accessible and actionable," said John Simon, CEO of SimonMed. "By combining imaging and genomics, we have an opportunity to help patients and providers better understand health risk earlier and with greater clarity." The collaboration is progressing rapidly, with additional updates expected in the near future. About Simplify Genomics Simplify Genomics is a CAP/CLIA-certified clinical laboratory focused on advancing the use of whole genome sequencing in healthcare. Spun out of Human Longevity in 2022, the company has developed a comprehensive Whole Genome Interpretation and Reporting Platform that integrates thousands of disease associations and pharmacogenomic insights to support clinical interpretation in real-world care settings. Simplify Genomics has processed more than 50,000 whole genomes and is committed to expanding access to high-quality genomic insights while enabling a more proactive, personalized approach to health. About SimonMed Headquartered in Scottsdale, Arizona, SimonMed is one of the largest outpatient diagnostic imaging and health technology providers in the United States. SimonMed operates more than 175 centers across 10 states and is supported by a nationwide team of more than 300 subspecialty-trained, board-certified radiologists. SimonMed provides the full spectrum of diagnostic imaging services from X-ray to complex Cardiac MRI and is a recognized leader in the clinical use of artificial intelligence. SimonMed Longevity is a division focused on proactive health. It offers whole-body MRI and preventive, multi-modality screening designed to help patients establish a baseline of their health, track changes over time, and identify potential risk earlier - when informed action may help prevent or delay disease.

SimonMed and AIRS Medical to deploy SwiftMR(R) at 170+ centers nationwide.

SimonMed and AIRS Medical to deploy SwiftMR(R) at 170+ centers nationwide. SimonMed is partnering with AIRS Medical to deploy SwiftMR(R), its AI-powered MR image reconstruction solution, across more than 170 centers nationwide. Dr. Sean Raj, MD, Chief Medical Officer and Chief Innovation Officer at SimonMed, on choosing AIRS Medical: "We rigorously evaluated every major solution in the market, and this was a clear decision. We chose AIRS Medical because their technology consistently delivered high-quality images, the most reliable performance across diverse scanner environments, and the greatest potential to improve the patient experience. Shorter scan times, clearer images, and more consistent studies across our network directly translate into better, faster answers for patients." SwiftMR is just the start. This deployment is the foundation of a deeper partnership with SimonMed, one where Airs Medical'll advance a shared vision for the future of longevity and preventive health.

Arizona AG and SimonMed settle over upfront billing and delayed refunds.

Arizona AG and SimonMed settle over upfront billing and delayed refunds. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced on January 20, 2026 that her office entered into a consent judgment with SimonMed Imaging MSO, LLC (SimonMed), resolving an investigation into the company's billing and refund practices related to up-front patient payments and insurance adjudication. The settlement requires SimonMed to reform those practices and pay civil penalties, restitution and fees. How the state sees it. * The State alleges SimonMed routinely required patients to make up front payments based on good faith estimates from a third-party tool of what insurance might ultimately cover, and then failed to issue refunds for overpayments within a reasonable time (with some refunds delayed more than a year). * The complaint also alleges that although SimonMed offered a "tokenization" option (to charge a patient's card only after insurance adjudication), front-line staff often did not present that option unless the patient complained about the billing process. * Under the consent judgment, SimonMed must, among other requirements, issue refunds within an average of 60 days after insurance adjudication, actively offer the tokenization option to all customers, pay $50,000 in civil penalties, $20,000 in restitution, and $20,000 in costs and fees, and implement detailed reporting and consumer notice obligations over the next five years. Conclusion. The SimonMed settlement underscores how state AGs are evaluating patient billing through a consumer communication lens, not just an accounting one to determine unfair and deceptive practices. The State's theory appears to center on whether patients clearly understood their payment options, knew what to expect after insurance adjudication, and received timely follow-ups when things went wrong. From this Buchalter Law Firm can deduce: * Clear, proactive communication about payment options and refund timing matters as much as the underlying policy. * Patient complaints, especially about billing confusion or delayed refunds, can trigger enforcement if they are not tracked and resolved efficiently and consistently. * Refund delays that stretch beyond expectations, even without intent, create risk when they appear systemic.
