PLANO, TX, MARCH 17, 2026 – Percipio Health has joined the American Heart Association Center for Health Technology & Innovation’s (the Center) Innovators’ Network. The Center is focused on building and fostering health technology relationships to develop innovative and scalable solutions.
The Innovators’ Network is a consortium connecting entrepreneurs, providers, researchers and payers to advance cardiovascular and brain health innovation. Innovators’ Network members also have the opportunity to access the Association's digital evidence-based scientific guidelines and clinical recommendations as they develop digital healthcare technologies. Members collaborate with the Center in different ways, including building models for clinical outcome studies, which lowers the significant cost of developing those studies independently, helping connect the science to technology and providing evidence that a digital platform improves healthcare outcomes – a key concern for providers and payers.
“The Center aims to advance the rapid, efficient and effective development of healthcare technology,” said Robert A. Harrington, M.D., FAHA, volunteer past president of the American Heart Association (2019-2020), chair of the American Heart Association’s Health Tech Advisory Group for the Center, and the Stephen and Suzanne Weiss Dean of Weill Cornell Medicine and provost for medical affairs of Cornell University. “Joining the Innovators’ Network gives members the opportunity to leverage the consortium and work toward broadening and deepening their engagement in this arena.”
“Joining the American Heart Association’s Innovators’ Network is an important step in Percipio Health’s mission to bring clinically grounded, evidence-based innovation into everyday care delivery,” said Eric Rock, CEO and Co-Founder of Percipio Health. “Percipio’s participation in the network will allow Percipio to collaborate with members on the intersection of science and technology that could leverage AI to potentially scale cardiovascular care to large populations, in a device-free manner."

Most health plans uncover member risk only after claims arrive—when costs are already climbing. This post explores how AI-driven, smartphone-based data collection can help identify hidden risks weeks or months earlier. By accelerating engagement and surfacing clinical, behavioral, and social health insights in real time, plans can intervene sooner, improve risk accuracy, and prevent rising costs before they take hold.
