The strategic appointments coincide with FMG’s ongoing expansion across Registered Investment Advisors, broker-dealers, wirehouses, and insurance organizations, as it continues to advance its growth strategy under GTCR’s ownership. This includes the recent acquisition of Testimonial iQ and the appointment of a new executive leadership team. To guide its next phase of enterprise scale and AI-enabled innovation, FMG is onboarding these leaders to bring deep institutional financial services experience, advanced technology leadership, and world-class corporate governance to support the board.

“FMG is serving a larger, more complex, and more strategic role in the market than it was even a few years ago,” said Casady. “The firms we serve are looking for technology that helps advisors communicate consistently, personalize at scale, meet compliance expectations, and turn marketing into a more measurable growth function. John, Janet, Deanna, and Steve each bring experience that maps directly to where FMG is going.”

“GTCR has strong conviction in FMG’s opportunity to define the next phase of organic growth for financial services firms,” said Michael Hollander, Managing Director at GTCR. “The company sits at the intersection of advisor growth, enterprise fintech, compliance, and marketing technology enabled by AI. This board brings the operating experience and governance perspective to help FMG continue scaling with the discipline and ambition the market requires.”

Earlier in his career, he held leadership roles at Prudential Financial, UBS, and Kidder Peabody, and he has served on the boards of the American Council of Life Insurers, the Insured Retirement Institute, and the Employee Benefit Research Institute.

Ensora Health extends Fusion’s multi-discipline EHR deeper into adult physical therapy

Published

on

By

New protocol-driven documentation, native MIPS reporting, and remote therapeutic monitoring bring Fusion’s PT, OT, and speech platform fully into adult physical therapy, with one shared platform across every age, so growing practices never outgrow their EHR.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., July 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ensora Health today announced an expansion of its Fusion EHR platform that brings its multi-discipline therapy record fully into adult physical therapy. Unlike platforms that adapt a single-discipline template to serve others, Fusion was built to run physical therapy (PT), occupational therapy (OT), and speech-language pathology (SLP) as first-class disciplines in one shared EHR, an architecture that supports the 1,200+ Fusion practices that already treat both pediatric and adult patients. Three new capabilities complete the platform for the operational demands of adult PT care: protocol-driven, time-based documentation, native MIPS reporting across PT, OT, and speech, and remote therapeutic monitoring. These capabilities join Fusion’s established strengths, including AI Session Assistant.

Ensora Health expands Fusion’s adult PT capabilities with MIPS reporting and RTM.

“Most PT practices are stuck choosing between software built for a single discipline and platforms so broad they fit no one well,” said Kevin Smith, SVP and general manager of Therapy Solutions at Ensora Health. “Fusion has run PT, OT, and speech together for years, for practices treating children and adults alike. This is a market we know well. We’re now putting focused investment behind a strength that has been part of Fusion from the start.”

Three new capabilities, now generally available, target the operational pressures adult PT practices report most:

Flow sheets bring protocol-driven, time-based documentation to adult PT including auto-populating CPT codes and CMS-aligned CO/CQ modifiers for clinician review and tracking time-based activities, so documentation flows cleanly into billing.

Native MIPS reporting across speech, PT and OT captures Medicare quality data directly in each discipline’s clinical workflow and flags incomplete measures before reporting deadlines — the compliance infrastructure Medicare-participating practices treat as a baseline.

Home exercise programs and remote therapeutic monitoring, both newly added to Fusion through its integration with Wibbi, live inside the patient’s Fusion chart rather than a separate app or printed handout. Therapists build and assign video-guided home programs, and practices can bill remote therapeutic monitoring (RTM) as a reimbursable service suited to the Medicare-heavy adult payer mix.

These sit alongside Fusion’s AI Session Assistant, introduced earlier in 2026, which generates structured documentation during the visit through ambient listening and dictation, all inside one shared EHR the whole care team already uses.

“Home exercise and remote monitoring work best when they’re part of the clinician’s workflow, not another app to log into,” said Etienne Gobeil, president and CEO of Wibbi. “Building our home exercise programs and remote therapeutic monitoring directly into Fusion lets therapists keep patients progressing between visits and, for adult practices, capture the reimbursement that supports that care without ever leaving the EHR they already work in.”

Fusion’s multi-discipline therapy EHR shows up in how practices actually use it: 77% of Fusion practices deliver speech therapy and 70% deliver occupational therapy alongside PT, depth a PT-first platform cannot easily replicate. For a practice that adds speech or occupational therapy, or one that grows from a pediatric base into adult care, that means no new software, no second login, and no re-entered patient history.

Physical therapy practices can learn more about Fusion for adult and pediatric physical therapy and request a demo.

TENADO METAL 3D Launches in U.S., Bringing Trade-Specific 3D CAD to Metal Fabricators

Published

on

By

The purpose-built CAD platform, production-proven in Europe, helps U.S. shops design faster, reduce errors, and deliver BIM-ready model data

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — TENADO, a Revalize company, today launched TENADO METAL 3D in the United States: a 3D CAD software built specifically for the metal trade. Developed in Germany and refined over more than 35 years of daily use in European fab shops, TENADO METAL 3D enters the U.S. market with workflows tailored to the metal industry. The solution features a built-in parts library compliant to AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction) and US fastener libraries, giving American metal fabricators an alternative to general-purpose design tools.

For decades, designers and fabricators in the U.S. have relied on CAD tools originally designed for mechanical engineering. The result is familiar across the trade: hours spent on manual setup, repeated calculations, rework, and designs that don’t translate cleanly to the shop floor, slowing projects down before fabrication even starts.

TENADO METAL 3D takes a different approach. Built on Autodesk Inventor technology, the 3D CAD software was designed around how metal projects are designed and made. It covers key use cases, with workflows for designing stairs and railings, structural components, and sheet metal. Instead of adapting generic tools, users can work in a system that reflects their day-to-day work.

The difference becomes most visible in routine work. Repetitive tasks such as miter calculations, flat-pattern unfolding, and cut list creation are handled automatically within the model—reducing manual effort and helping teams move faster from design to fabrication-ready output with fewer errors.

“Most metal fabricators are still working with CAD tools that were never built for their trade,” said Karlos Palmer, Senior Director of Product Management for TENADO at Revalize. “TENADO METAL 3D focuses on the workflows they use every day. Our users get up and running quickly and spend less time on design, so they can take on more work, win more bids, and ultimately grow their business.”

The platform also supports the evolution of fabrication projects in response to requirements for model-based environments. TENADO METAL 3D includes an IFC interface (the open BIM data standard) that allows users to exchange model data with architects and general contractors on commercial projects.

The platform is designed for custom fabrication shops, stair and railing specialists, and similar businesses that need to increase output without adding headcount. By automating repetitive design steps and generating fabrication-ready outputs directly from the model, the software improves consistency and shortens project turnaround times.

TENADO METAL 3D is available now in the United States. Demonstrations can be scheduled through the TENADO website.

TENADO GmbH, based in Bochum, has been developing industry-specific CAD software for digital planning and design for more than 35 years.
