actAVA Named an OpenAI Select Partner

actAVA has joined the OpenAI Partner Network as a Select Partner, teaming with OpenAI to help health systems build, deploy, and scale agentic AI responsibly, from pilot to production.

Today, actAVA was named an OpenAI Select Partner within the OpenAI Partner Network. It's a milestone we're proud of, and a signal of where healthcare AI is going.

The idea behind it is simple. OpenAI builds frontier models. actAVA makes them work in healthcare, wrapped in the governance, testing, and audit rigor that regulated care demands. Together we help health systems put agentic AI to work across the administrative workflows that run the business.

actAVA empowers three key healthcare segments with tailored AI solutions:

1. Health-tech Software Companies. These businesses develop specialized software to enhance patient care, streamline operations, and manage data. actAVA's platform builds and orchestrates intelligent AI agents to optimize their operations and product offerings.
2. Tech-Enabled Service Providers. These providers combine proprietary technology with human services for comprehensive solutions. actAVA integrates data and automates complex workflows, delivering reliable AI-driven services.
3. Large Healthcare & Life Science Enterprises. High-revenue organizations with complex, large-scale operations. actAVA scales agentic AI infrastructure, ensuring safe, compliant, and impactful deployments.

Our platform is already solving high-stakes challenges across these segments through specific use cases, including:

• Automating complex actuarial research for high-stakes decisions, replacing manual processes with deterministic reasoning and full observability.
• Linking agents across multi-location healthcare operations to automate ingestion and processing, significantly amplifying scale and time-to-value.
• Driving enrollment, care management, and referral leakage reduction for digital health platforms through autonomous scanning and outreach.
• Handling post-discharge navigation via voice and SMS to book transportation and reschedule appointments within firm safety guardrails.
• And much, much more.

What the OpenAI Partner Network is

The OpenAI Partner Network is a global program for partners to build, sell, and deliver AI solutions with OpenAI. It brings together partners with deep industry expertise, delivery capability, and real customer relationships, then backs them with the resources, enablement, and support to turn frontier models into measurable impact.

Select Partner is a recognition of that combination. For actAVA, it means continuing to work closely with OpenAI to help organizations adopt frontier models and products, and turn them into governed, auditable outcomes.

What the partnership brings together

With GPT‑5.6, health systems get more useful work from every token and stronger performance per dollar. With ChatGPT Work, they turn ambitious goals into finished work. And through actAVA's agentic lifecycle development platform, that frontier capability arrives wrapped in the governance, testing, and audit rigor healthcare requires.

What actAVA and OpenAI do together

Healthcare AI won't be built around a single model. It gets built around the context, evaluation, and governance that high-stakes work demands. That's the layer actAVA brings, through a healthcare-native agent lifecycle with four capabilities.

• Plan & Build. Route reasoning-heavy work to OpenAI's models, then orchestrate fragmented systems into agents grounded in real managed care policy.
• Test & Measure. Put every agent through χ-Bench, the world's first long-horizon healthcare benchmark for AI agents, built with more than 20 hospitals and universities.
• Optimize & Scale. Give teams the visibility and controls to grow deployments, and let agents keep improving from real production outcomes.
• Govern & Audit. Automate compliance across the NIST AI RMF, HIPAA, and CMS standards with CHRYSO, so the audit trail exists before anyone asks for it.

actAVA is HIPAA compliant and SOC 2 certified, and the platform lets teams build and manage agents using any private or anonymized models from leading AI providers. OpenAI's models now sit inside that governed environment, and health systems can pick the right model for the job without giving up control.

Where this goes to work

Our focus is the high-stakes administrative load that consumes healthcare operations: prior authorization, utilization management, care management, and the long tail of workflows that never made it onto a vendor's roadmap.

These are the tasks where agentic AI pays off for payers, providers, and health systems, and where the work has to be governed and auditable before it ships. Pairing OpenAI's frontier models with actAVA's guardrails is what makes that possible.

Being named an OpenAI Select Partner lets us pair OpenAI's frontier models with the guardrails clinical operations require. Together, we can help health systems turn agentic ambition into governed, auditable outcomes, moving AI from pilot to production without taking on more risk or unpredictable cost.

What's next

This is a starting line. We're deepening our OpenAI-related offerings and investing in enablement so healthcare teams can scale deployments with confidence.

Our work stays anchored to the same goal: turning engineered chaos into governed, deployable intelligence, and helping customers translate AI ambition into measurable business and patient outcomes.
