Description

Marc Ryan, Chief Solutions Officer at Lilac Software, returns to the DocBuddy Journal with big news: Lilac Software has been acquired by Medisolv, combining payer and agentic AI expertise with Medisolv's established provider and quality measurement platform.

From there, Marc and host Erik Sunset break down the most important trends shaping healthcare in 2026 — the Trump administration's technology-first agenda, value-based care expansion, and the slow but real progress on interoperability. They also dig into the financial fallout from the One Big Beautiful Bill on state Medicaid programs, the turbulence hitting health plans across every line of business, and what landmark PBM reforms and Most Favored Nation drug pricing could mean for American consumers.
