Dallas-based AMN Healthcare’s Language Services division has acquired Jaide Health, a real-time, AI-enabled medical interpretation and translation solution designed to help patients and care teams communicate more quickly and easily throughout the administrative aspects of the healthcare experience.
The acquisition expands AMN Language Services’ ability to support patients with limited English proficiency during both human clinical interactions and in before and after care, the company said, while maintaining the critical role of medically qualified human interpreters for clinical, complex, and sensitive conversations.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
“This is an important strategic move in AMN’s ongoing mission to improve access to care for all,” said AMN Healthcare President and CEO Cary Grace.
“By expanding language support across more moments in the healthcare journey,” Grace added in a statement, “we can help health systems deliver a more seamless experience for patients and care teams while continuing to rely on the critical expertise of our qualified interpreters when it matters most.”
Boston-based Jaide Health provides high-quality, AI-assisted language support for common, everyday verbal exchanges and written translations, such as sharing intake and discharge information, helping close gaps beyond the physician or acute-care encounter where patients and staff often experience delays or limited language access. When conversations become clinical or complex, human interpreters remain central to ensuring accuracy, empathy, and patient safety, AMN said.
The Jaide Health solution is now deployed with clients in multiple healthcare environments, demonstrating value in real-world workflows and patient communications, the company said.
“We believe we’ve built one of the strongest solutions in the market, and joining AMN Language Services lets us reach more patients through AMN’s scale and clinical-quality standards,” said Joe Corkery, MD, CEO and co-founder of Jaide Health.
Corkery said AMN Healthcare was his company’s first choice because of a “shared commitment to quality.”
“Together,” he added, “we can pair smart AI assistance with the high standards of AMN’s human interpreting to provide LEP patients with a voice outside of clinical encounters, which we know leads to better outcomes and experiences.”
As part of the acquisition, the Jaide Health team will join AMN Healthcare.
