On Wednesday, over 60 health tech companies signed a pledge orchestrated by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to make health data-sharing easier and to build apps for patients to access and act on their health data. CMS Administrator Mehmet Oz said in a press release<\/a> that the agreement signals a coming \u201cparadigm shift in the U.S. healthcare system.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some of the biggest names in health care and technology<\/a> agreed to the pledge, including Amazon, Apple, Google, OpenAI, Epic, Microsoft, CVS Health, and UnitedHealth Group.<\/p>\n

By signing the pledge, health tech companies promised that they will work collaboratively to deliver results on developing \u201ctrusted, patient-centered and practical data exchange\u201d in the first quarter of 2026. Specifically, the proposal creates a new category of \u201cCMS Aligned Networks\u201d that meet the agency\u2019s new \u201cInteroperability Framework\u201d criteria<\/a>, which include the use of up-to-date data-sharing standards.<\/p>\n
