Rainfall Health Expands Partner Ecosystem to Meet CMS Mandates

The expansion arrives as 721 hospitals nationwide face increased financial and clinical accountability under the CMS TEAM model and the recently extended CJR-X program. According to Rainfall Health, hospitals attempting to build the necessary value-based care infrastructure internally face administrative costs ranging from $650,000 to over $1.2 million annually. The R.A.I.N. Compliant™ designation serves as a verifiable framework to automate these regulatory requirements.

Each new partner brings specialized capabilities to the surgical care journey. HNI Healthcare contributes clinical staffing and technology-enabled operations, while Goldfinch Health focuses on nurse navigation and surgical recovery optimization. LainaHealth rounds out the group by providing virtual physical therapy paired with continuous outcomes tracking. This collaboration enables health systems to maintain longitudinal visibility into patient recovery, a critical requirement for compliance with the 30- and 90-day episode accountability mandated by federal guidelines.
