Across healthcare systems, determining whether a treatment is medically necessary, what level of care a patient requires, and whether that care will be approved remains a slow, manual, and often inconsistent process. Known as utilization management, this function sits at the heart of healthcare operations—but is still heavily reliant on fragmented data, manual reviews, and subjective judgment. The result is delays in care, administrative burden, rising costs, and friction between providers and payers.

Xsolis addresses these challenges through its Dragonfly® platform, which uses real-time patient data, machine learning, and predictive analytics to bring greater objectivity, speed, and transparency to decision-making. By continuously analysing patient condition and care requirements, the platform helps healthcare organizations align faster on medical and care decisions while reducing operational inefficiencies, administrative waste, and friction between providers and payers.

Through this partnership, HTEC will play a central role in advancing the Dragonfly platform—bringing deep expertise in AI-enabled product engineering and software development lifecycle (SDLC), as well as scalable cloud-based systems and AI tooling.

HTEC will support the continued evolution of the platform’s predictive capabilities across key healthcare workflows, including utilization management, discharge readiness prediction, appeals and denials management, and operational analytics for providers and payer organizations. The collaboration will focus on embedding agentic AI to improve workflow automation, accelerate data-driven decision-making, and enhance operational intelligence, while modernizing the underlying engineering environment to speed innovation and ensure compliance with strict healthcare regulations.

A key differentiator of the partnership is HTEC’s AI-powered approach to software delivery. By embedding AI across the end-to-end SDLC—from translating product requirements and generating specifications to accelerating development, QA, code review, and delivery tracking—HTEC helps organizations improve engineering efficiency, increase release velocity, and bring new capabilities to market faster. Working closely with Xsolis, HTEC will help identify and implement the right AI-enabled engineering practices and tooling to streamline product development while maintaining the reliability, transparency, and compliance required in healthcare technology environments.

“Xsolis is addressing some of healthcare’s most operationally complex challenges through AI-driven clinical and operational decision support,” said Lawrence Whittle, Chief Strategy Officer at HTEC. “We’re excited to bring our healthcare engineering expertise and AI-first delivery approach to support the continued evolution of the Dragonfly platform. Together, we aim to help healthcare organizations operate more efficiently while enabling better experiences for providers, payers, and patients.”

“HTEC stood out because of its strong engineering culture, healthcare domain expertise, and practical approach to applying AI across both product innovation and software delivery,” said Zach Evans, CTO at Xsolis. “As we continue to expand the Dragonfly platform, we see HTEC as a strategic partner that can help accelerate innovation while maintaining the reliability, compliance, and operational excellence our customers expect.”

The collaboration reflects a shared commitment to solving one of healthcare’s most pressing challenges: how to deliver faster, more aligned care decisions at scale while reducing cost and complexity. By combining Xsolis’ AI-driven decision intelligence with HTEC’s ability to engineer, scale, and operationalise advanced AI systems, the partnership is positioned to deliver measurable impact across healthcare organizations.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche is set to return to Capitol Hill on Tuesday after the Trump administration signaled it was pausing contentious plans to move forward with a nearly $1.8 billion fund that could compensate allies of President Donald Trump who believe they have been unjustly investigated and prosecuted.

The hearing before the House Appropriations Committee was scheduled for discussion of the Justice Department's budget, but lawmakers will almost certainly focus their questioning on the creation of a fund that has provoked outrage over the mere possibility that violent pro-Trump rioters who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, could be eligible for payouts.

The Republican president is now reconsidering whether to move forward with the fund established to resolve his lawsuit against the Internal Revenue Service over the leak of his tax returns, according to a person familiar with the matter, in the face of Republican backlash and legal setbacks. The person insisted on anonymity to discuss the president’s thinking on Monday. The Justice Department also said Monday it would comply with a Virginia court temporarily blocking the administration's “Anti-Weaponization Fund,” effectively agreeing to pause the plan for at least two weeks.

Another judge in Florida raised the prospect of reopening the IRS lawsuit because of “grievous allegations” of improper dealing made against the administration by settlement critics.

The Trump administration has defended the fund as an appropriate measure to make up for what officials insist was a weaponized Justice Department during President Joe Biden's Democratic administration, a claim the Biden administration strongly denied. Though some Trump supporters, including participants in the Capitol riot, have celebrated the announcement, the reaction among Republicans in Congress has been decidedly more hostile, forcing Blanche to try to assuage a GOP constituency that generally operates in close alignment with the administration.

The furor has especially complicated matters in the Senate, where Republicans defiantly left town 10 days ago without passing legislation to fund Trump’s immigration enforcement agencies. Republicans who returned to Washington on Monday said they won’t have the votes to pass the Homeland Security spending bill until the White House works with them to place parameters on the fund. Many have pushed the administration to impose limits or scrap the idea altogether.

At a Senate budget hearing last month, Blanche refused to rule out the possibility that those who carried out violence on Jan. 6 could be eligible for payouts and has repeatedly said in interviews that anyone who feels persecuted by the criminal justice system is free to apply. Payouts will be decided by a five-member commission appointed by Blanche.

But he has apparently struck a more conciliatory tone in private when confronted by Republican anger.

Blanche encountered a groundswell of opposition last month at a tense private meeting with GOP senators, with more than half raising concerns, including by shouting at the Justice Department's top official, Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas said in a recent episode of his podcast.

“There were fireworks at an epic level — and I've got to say, it's one of the roughest meetings I've seen in my entire time in the Senate," Cruz said.

Behind closed doors, Blanche was “adamant” that no one who assaulted police at the Capitol would receive compensation, according to Cruz.

“He said not just ‘no,’ but ‘hell no,’” the senator recalled.
