WellSky® Wins “Home Healthcare Innovation Award” from MedTech Breakthrough for AI-Powered Ambient Listening and Transcription

Prestigious international awards program recognizes standout digital health and medical technology innovations

OVERLAND PARK, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--WellSky, a global health and community care technology and services company, today announced that the WellSky Scribe for Home Health solution has been named the winner of the “Home Healthcare Innovation Award” in the 10^th annual MedTech Breakthrough Awards program conducted by MedTech Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization that recognizes the most innovative companies, technologies, and products in the global digital health and medical technology market. This is the seventh consecutive year that WellSky has been honored by MedTech Breakthrough.

The WellSky Scribe for Home Health solution, part of the WellSky SkySense AI^™ suite embedded within the WellSky Home Health electronic health record (EHR), delivers an AI-powered documentation experience that helps reduce manual documentation, enhance patient-provider connection, and improve the care experience for everyone. Using ambient listening and transcription, the solution captures natural conversations during in-home visits and populates the information into the WellSky Home Health EHR, creating a seamless workflow.

Following the visit, the WellSky Intelligent Language Assistant (WILA), an AI voice agent, helps clinicians complete any remaining documentation by guiding them through unanswered assessment questions and capturing responses directly into the record. Clinicians remain in full control, with the ability to review and confirm all documentation, ensuring accuracy while reducing time spent on manual data entry.

“At WellSky, we believe the future of healthcare depends on intelligent technologies that seamlessly support clinicians in their daily work,” said Bill Miller, chairman and CEO of WellSky. “Our expanding WellSky SkySense AI suite reflects that vision, bringing practical, AI-driven innovation into the home to reduce complexity and improve outcomes. We’re honored to be recognized by MedTech Breakthrough for this achievement.”

The WellSky Scribe capabilities are currently live at more than 400 home health agencies. Users report up to a 50% reduction in documentation time, with clinicians saving an average of 30 minutes per start of care visit—helping reduce after-hours charting and improve overall efficiency.

“WellSky Scribe for Home Health helps clinicians spend more time focusing on patient care and less time typing,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, MedTech Breakthrough. “In home health care delivery, documentation requirements are a major contributor to clinician burnout and reduced time with patients. WellSky’s tightly integrated, multi-modal approach enables clinicians to reclaim their time by ensuring documentation is captured efficiently at the point of care, helping reduce workflow redundancy, minimize error, and support more timely charting.”

Now celebrating its 10th anniversary, the MedTech Breakthrough Awards program has spent a decade recognizing the companies driving meaningful progress and improving patient care across the global health and medical technology industry. The program spans a wide range of categories – including Telehealth, Clinical Administration, Patient Engagement, EHR, Virtual Care, Medical Devices and beyond – honoring the innovations reshaping how care is delivered worldwide.

This year's program drew a record-breaking number of nominations from leading companies and startups across more than 20 countries, reflecting the growing global impact and momentum of the digital healthcare industry.
