The Fort Worth Press - Advanced Health Selects 1upHealth to Lead Interoperability Initiatives

BOSTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / January 14, 2026 / 1upHealth, a leader in health data interoperability, today announced that Advanced Health, a Coordinated Care Organization in Oregon, will leverage the company's comprehensive solution suite to achieve CMS-0057 compliance while also supporting broader programs like care coordination that require easy access to comprehensive and timely health data.

Advanced Health is a local health plan within Oregon's Medicaid program, Oregon Health Plan, serving residents of Curry and Coos Counties. Facing the complex challenges of delivering high-quality care in rural and underserved communities, the organization chose 1upHealth to meet CMS Access API and electronic Prior Authorization regulations and, in turn, help achieve better outcomes for its diverse member population.

The health plan will deploy the 1up Platform along with 1up Patient Access, 1up Provider Directory, 1up Provider Access, 1up Payer-to-Payer Data Exchange, and 1up Prior Authorization.

"With the interoperability rule deadline quickly approaching, we needed a strategic partner who could help us navigate this new era of data sharing so we could stay focused on our core mission - to advance and ensure quality healthcare is available in our communities in a transformative manner that respects each individual's needs," said Samyukta Vendrathi, Chief Operating Officer. "With 1upHealth's unmatched expertise and robust solution suite, we are eager to embark on this next phase and unlock new opportunities."

This new partnership comes on the heels of a series of recent milestones for 1upHealth, underscoring the company's leadership in the interoperability space. In the latest CMS Payer Interoperability 2025 Report, KLAS Research recognized 1upHealth as a long-term, trusted partner for payers - citing its deep FHIR expertise, transparent communication, and strong relationships that help customers stay ahead of CMS mandates. 1upHealth was also recently selected by CommunityCare, Oklahoma's largest locally owned health plan, to simplify CMS compliance while positioning the health plan for long-term innovation and value creation.

"As we look across our customer base, we're seeing a common theme," said 1upHealth CEO Andrew Boyd. "Payers are moving from mandate to mission; finding ways to use required interoperability investments to support their broader organizational purpose. We are proud to partner with Advanced Health as they work to make a difference in the health and well-being of their members and the communities they serve."
