Elation Health and Anthropic Team to Power Clinical Insights for Primary Care

Claude, Anthropic’s AI model, is embedded in Elation’s EHR - cutting time-to-first-insights by 61% and accelerating AI adoption among primary care clinicians

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Elation Health, the clinical-first technology company powering innovation in primary care, today announced that Claude, Anthropic’s AI assistant, now powers its Clinical Insights solution — delivering fast, cited chart summaries that help clinicians prepare for visits in seconds. Anthropic is the leading artificial intelligence research and development company with an emphasis on responsible AI.

Clinical Insights now uses Claude’s speed and long-context reasoning to synthesize complex, longitudinal patient data — including problem lists, medications, visit notes, labs, and vitals — into concise summaries with clear citations back to the chart. This enables primary care clinicians to get a focused view of each patient's health story in seconds, helping them prepare for visits faster while staying firmly in control of clinical decisions.

The integration combines Elation’s clinical-first EHR and nationwide primary care footprint with Anthropic’s reputation in high-stakes, regulated environments. Since launching its clinical-first AI platform in August 2025, Elation has seen rapid adoption of AI tools across its nationwide primary care network, with Clinical Insights emerging as the fastest-adopted AI feature on the platform.

“Anthropic was a natural choice for Elation and is a trusted integration as we enhance our native intelligence in ways that are transformational for primary care,” said Kyna Fong, Ph.D., co-founder and CEO of Elation Health. “We chose Claude, powered by Anthropic, for the strength of its model and its reputation for responsible AI. Together, we’re using AI thoughtfully, not for novelty, but to deliver clinical-first intelligence that reduces burden, keeps physicians in control, and moves primary care forward.”

“Primary care clinicians are under immense pressure to manage complex, longitudinal care with limited time,” said Zubair Jandali, healthcare and life sciences lead at Anthropic. “Elation has deep roots in the primary care community, and they’ve built something that fits how clinicians actually work — fast, cited chart summaries that support their judgment without adding friction. By embedding Claude directly into Elation’s EHR, we’re able to deliver fast, cited chart insights that fit naturally into existing primary care workflows, support clinician judgment, and meet the safety and reliability standards required in regulated healthcare environments.”

Early impact of Claude-powered Clinical Insights:

Clinical Insights is an Elation feature that synthesizes dense, longitudinal patient data, including problem lists, medications, recent visit notes, labs, vitals, and immunizations, into concise summaries with clear citations back to the chart for improved trust and traceability. Now, since completing the migration in November, the integration of Claude into Clinical Insights has led to:

  • 61% faster answers at the point of care: With Claude Haiku 4.5 time-to-first-insight dropped substantially, with streaming responses that clinicians can read as they are generated.
  • Rapid clinician adoption: Usage of Clinical Insights has doubled since its core engine was moved to Claude, making it the most rapidly adopted AI capability on the Elation platform and proving how thoughtful intelligence can be woven into workflows to better support frontline primary care.
  • High-quality chart synthesis with faster rates: Internal evaluations show that Claude understands the nuances of patient charts more accurately and responds faster than Elation’s previous approach, enabling safer, more timely insights to support decision making at the point of care.
  • Workflow-aligned, personalized experiences for primary care: Clinicians can personalize Clinical Insights with Quick Action buttons (such as “summarize last three visits”) and custom instructions, choose automatic or on-demand generation, and move fluidly between the AI summary, the patient’s full record, and their visit note.

All Clinical Insights experiences are delivered within Elation’s HIPAA-compliant infrastructure and generative AI governance framework, with clear citations and visual cues designed to keep physicians firmly in control of clinical decisions.

Clinical Insights is generally available now on Elation Health and is included at no additional charge with continuous updates to further improve speed, usability, and impact for primary care teams.
