Blooming Health Announces Third Annual “Blooming Day” to Advance the Future of Outcome-Driven Health Related Social Care

Published

6 months ago

on

Hosted in NYC, the national convening will unite healthcare leaders, government officials, innovators, and community partners to address systemic challenges and drive change

NEW YORK, April 20, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Blooming Health, the outcomes infrastructure platform powering the coordination and navigation of health-related social needs, today announced its third annual “Blooming Day”, taking place on May 12, 2026, at Lavan Midtown in New York City.

Blooming Day is about bringing together the leaders who are not just talking about access – but actively building systems that ensure coordination happens, gaps are closed, and outcomes improve.

This year’s event marks growth in both theme and focus. Building upon the event’s theme, Access to Care, Blooming Day 2026 will convene leaders across healthcare, government, and community organizations to address a more fundamental challenge: how to reliably deliver better health outcomes at scale in a system where the majority of outcomes are driven and the majority of barriers are faced by non-medical needs.

As healthcare shifts toward outcome-based models, organizations are increasingly responsible for factors they cannot solve through clinical care alone. Blooming Day will focus on how the industry can move from fragmented, manual coordination efforts to systems that ensure needs are identified, addressed, and resolved – consistently and measurably at scale.

Confirmed speakers include:

Andy Slavitt, Former head of CMS and Town Hall Ventures cofounderChirlane McCray, Writer, Activist, Former First Lady of NYCShawyn Patterson-Howard, Mayor of Mt. Vernon, NYKevin Fiori, MD, MPH, Vice Chair, Community Health & Engagement, Montefiore Health SystemAmie Parikh, CEO, Hudson Valley Care CoalitionMatilde L. Roman, Esq., SVP, Chief Inclusion and Impact Officer, Westchester Medical CenterElizabeth Hall, LCSW, Vice President, Health Equity, Quality and Accreditation, AmeriHealth CaritasDomonic Hopson, MD, CEO, Neighborhood Family PracticeMichael Hancock, Former Mayor of DenverCelina Sullivan, Senior Director, Program Management, Kaiser PermanentePamela Mattel, CEO, Coordinated Behavioral CareDeborah Brown, SVP & Chief External Affairs Officer, NYC Health + HospitalsZachariah Hennessey, Chief Strategy Officer at Public Health SolutionsAndrew Mendenhall, MD, DABFM, DABPM, FASAM, President and CEO, Central City ConcernDr. Ashwin Vasan, Senior Fellow in the Department of Health Policy and Management, Yale School of Public Health.Diana E. Ramos, MD, MPH, MBA, FACOG, California Surgeon GeneralDr. Chelsea Clinton, Co-founder of Metrodora Ventures

“Healthcare has made enormous progress in clinical care, but we still lack the infrastructure to reliably and consistently address the non-medical needs that drive outcomes,” said Nima Roohi, Co-Founder and CEO of Blooming Health. “Blooming Day is about bringing together the leaders who are not just talking about access – but actively building systems that ensure coordination happens, gaps are closed, and outcomes improve. From solving for Medicaid Redetermination administrative requirements to reduce coverage loss to making sure a patient can show up for their annual check up with a safe transportation ride.”

Blooming Health will showcase its AI-forward solution, the first of its kind in the industry, designed to address social care gaps for millions of patients on its platform. The demonstration will also highlight new product capabilities and partnership announcements.

The event will feature panels, networking, and working sessions focused on:

Proven strategies to reduce care gaps and drive measurable health outcomesNavigating Medicaid redeterminations and the operational realities of the 6-month eligibility cycleAligning healthcare and social care to create coordinated, end-to-end systems of supportScaling outreach, engagement, and care coordination through AI-driven workflowsIntegrating social drivers of health into financial and risk-based care models

Blooming Day 2026 reflects a broader shift in the industry – from fragmented efforts to coordinated systems, and from measuring activity to delivering results. This event is designed not just to spark dialogue, but to catalyze partnerships and approaches that can be implemented in real-world settings.
