AI and Autonomy: HEALWELL launches AmadeusAI for data-driven care
HEALWELL AI Inc. has launched AmadeusAI, integrating its DARWEN AI technology with Orion Health's Amadeus platform. The goal is simple: give clinicians faster, clearer access to patient information and support better decisions at the point of care.
AmadeusAI ingests both structured data like labs and unstructured data like notes, then turns them into actionable insights. That means earlier risk detection, more proactive care plans, and fewer costly surprises.
What's different about AmadeusAI
This isn't just a new layer on the EHR. It surfaces the right data, in the right format, for the right person-without extra clicks or manual hunts through charts.
For health systems dealing with rising demand and workforce pressure, that translates to time saved, safer decisions, and measurable outcomes.
SMARTSuite: practical tools for real workflows
- SMARTSearch: Natural-language search across notes, labs, and charts. Ask a plain-language question and surface the critical details fast.
- SMARTSummary: Role-specific summaries. A nurse sees meds and monitoring needs; a specialist sees longitudinal labs and diagnostics.
- SMARTIdentify: Population-level risk detection using clinical, demographic, and social data. Identify who needs outreach before issues escalate.
Built on a proven platform
Orion Health's Amadeus has supported national networks in the UK, Canada, New Zealand, and Australia, as well as U.S. Health Information Exchanges and providers in the Middle East. Over 30 years, it has connected thousands of providers, exchanged billions of records, and touched 150+ million patients across 15 countries.
Existing Amadeus customers can upgrade to AmadeusAI without disrupting established systems. HEALWELL is working with global organizations to validate impact in live environments.

For clinicians: support, not replacement
AmadeusAI reduces repetitive tasks and filters noise, so clinicians can focus on patients. It helps lower cognitive load while improving data quality at decision time.
Trust, privacy, and adoption still matter. Clear governance, transparent model behavior, and audit trails should be part of every rollout plan.
Operational wins for CMIOs, CNIOs, and CIOs
- Prioritize three high-yield use cases: cross-record search, clinician-ready summaries, and risk stratification for outreach.
- Map data sources (EHR, HIE, labs, imaging, SDoH) and define minimum viable datasets for each use case.
- Stand up guardrails: access controls, PHI handling, prompt and output logging, and clinical review steps.
- Pilot with a small cohort and clear metrics: time-to-information, documentation quality, outreach conversion, readmission or ED re-visit rates.
- Embed into existing workflows (smart links, buttons, or in-basket views) to avoid context switching.
Why this matters for population health
Earlier risk detection enables targeted outreach: chronic disease management, preventive screenings, and vaccination campaigns. It can also speed up mandatory reporting and reduce repeat ED visits.
For systems under cost and capacity pressure, these gains help stabilize operations while improving patient outcomes.
Strategic context
This launch shows the logic behind HEALWELL's acquisition of Orion Health: combine wide network reach with practical AI. The result is a scalable path to AI adoption without ripping and replacing core systems.
HEALWELL plans to expand through Orion's customer base, positioning AmadeusAI as a practical upgrade for health networks worldwide.
Preparing your teams
Clinical adoption improves when frontline staff understand how AI summaries, search, and risk scores are generated and validated. Pair training with clear escalation paths for uncertain outputs.
If you're building internal skills around clinical AI workflows and governance, this curated hub may help: AI courses by job role.
Bottom line
AmadeusAI brings search, summarization, and risk identification into everyday clinical work. It's a practical step toward proactive care-faster decisions, earlier interventions, and smoother operations across the care continuum.
For health leaders, the opportunity is to deploy with clear use cases, strong governance, and a focus on measurable impact.
