Lumeris partnered with TextQL Healthcare to bring analytics directly into a HIPAA-regulated environment spanning claims, clinical, operational, and star ratings data. What began as a proof of concept in Q3 2025 became a production platform by early 2026.
Every new question meant a ticket to an analyst, rounds of clarification, and a two-to-three day wait. Leadership needed analytics that came to the user, not the other way around.
[ THE PROBLEM ]
Complex Regulated Healthcare Data + BI Tools That Couldn’t Keep Up
Static dashboards couldn’t keep up with the speed of a healthcare organization managing three distinct business lines, each with its own data systems.
Every question meant a ticket. Every ticket meant a wait.

FIG. 01 — BEFORE TEXTQL
Lumeris is a leader in value-based care and primary care AI, operating across health plans, health systems, and medical groups enabling improvements in cost, utilization, risk and quality measure performance. That breadth creates a massive, complex data landscape, spanning claims, clinical, operational, and star ratings. To wrangle it, Lumeris built Tom, an AI-powered Primary Care as a Service platform that automates workflows, surfaces clinical decision support, and improves care coordination.
But analytics remained a bottleneck. Every new question meant a ticket, rounds of clarification, and a two-to-three day wait. Clients needed answers that came to them — not a queue.
"Before TextQL, it took users multiple steps trudging through a number of reports in order to connect the dots and find where the opportunities and insights lie. Now, they no longer have to do that."
Anna Libers, VP of Product and Solution Management, Lumeris
"As we scale Tom™, speed and accuracy in data analytics continues to increase in criticality. TextQL enables analytics work across our clinical and business teams to merge a multitude of data sources, analyze population health trends, and extract actionable insights in real-time. This directly translates to major operational efficiencies and productivity improvements."
Harigovind Singh, Senior Vice President of Engineering, Lumeris
[ THE SOLUTION ]
Tom: HIPAA-Compliant AI Analytics
TextQL Healthcare and Lumeris partnered to bring analytics directly into Tom, Lumeris’ AI primary care platform — with full HIPAA compliance from day one.
Connecting TextQL’s platform has enabled Tom to query complex datasets and delivering discrete and actionable intelligence to care teams without the need for SQL or traditional reporting tools.
TextQL supports the full suite of HIPAA-specific requirements needed to operate in a regulated healthcare environment: PHI audit trail, auto-logout, RBAC and workspace isolation, SSO integration with enterprise identity providers (Ping, OIDC), and data entitlement controls. The deployment runs in a dedicated private cloud environment, a baseline requirement for any HIPAA-covered entity. Few AI analytics platforms can check every one of these boxes.
HIPAA-compliant by architecture, not by patch.

PHI audit trail
Every query and result is logged with full traceability, meeting HIPAA audit requirements for protected health information access.
RBAC and workspace isolation
Role-based access controls and workspace isolation ensure users only see the data they’re authorized to access across business lines.
Enterprise SSO integration
SSO integration with Ping and OIDC identity providers ensures secure, frictionless authentication for all users.
Private cloud deployment
Dedicated GCP/Kubernetes deployment with data residency controls — a baseline requirement for any HIPAA-covered entity.
Lumeris deployed TextQL across its environment for internal rollout. Abraham Pohler, a non-technical Product Manager, became the platform’s most vocal champion, building training materials, driving adoption, and using TextQL to propose and ship solutions alongside engineering without writing a single line of SQL.
One question. Instant answer. Full audit trail.

[ THE RESULTS ]
What Changes When Regulated Healthcare Data Becomes Self-Serve
TextQL’s integration with Tom is now part of Lumeris’s weekly operations, driving significant value across multiple departments.
Analyst on-call burden for ad-hoc reports eliminated
Non-technical users independently run complex healthcare analyses through Tom. The ticket-to-analyst-to-report cycle that took days is gone.
Claims forecasting reduced from days to minutes
Users look at performance analytics, costs, and trends, then within a few prompts drill into more detailed questions: identifying patients, finding gaps, spotting opportunities. What used to take multiple reports and days of analyst time now happens in a single conversation.
Executive JOC reports automated
Real-time PMPM and cost trend analysis generated on demand, replacing manual compilation. Star ratings forecasting for Essence Health and care gap identification for medical groups now run through Tom.
Every query passes through the compliance stack.

Answer
FIG. 04 — COMPLIANCE GATEWAY
TextQL delivers compliant AI analytics for even complex, regulated industries like healthcare. The platform understands the PHI boundary, correctly identifies what can and cannot touch PHI, and makes conservative calls.
Lumeris is expanding TextQL across business lines to accelerate data-driven decisions, and growing the partnership. The same architecture that satisfies HIPAA — private cloud deployment, data residency controls, role-based access, audit trails — translates directly to financial services, insurance, and any industry where compliance is non-negotiable.
"When we first saw value with TextQL, it was incredibly impressive. Users could look at performance analytics, costs and trends, and then within a few prompts quickly ask more detailed questions, identify patients, where their opportunities are. Now they no longer have to trudge through a number of reports in order to connect the dots. This is real and we’re incredibly excited about it."
