Part of Orchestra, Inkhouse Supports Healthcare’s Leading Innovators through PR, Public Affairs, Influencer Marketing, and Other Strategic Advisory Services
SAN FRANCISCO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Inkhouse, a strategic communications firm in the Orchestra network that drives relevance and impact for innovative companies, doubled its growing client base for its health and wellness practice in 2026 so far, launching four new integrated PR and communications programs with Innovaccer, Cognita, Nabla, and Thyme Care.
Inkhouse also recently promoted Stephanie Fergione to Executive Vice President. Fergione is based in Boston, Mass., and has long led many of Inkhouse’s most notable healthtech companies, including CareQuest Innovation Partners, Strata Decision Technology, and Yale New Haven Health Urgent Care. In her new role, Fergione will continue her client work and build the growing practice with Executive Vice President and General Manager Anne Baker.
“AI is creating new possibilities for healthcare in areas that were previously considered impossible to solve. That includes everything from accelerating drug discovery to systemic efficiencies that substantially improve access to care. There is a real need for organizations to communicate how this technology delivers meaningful, human-centered outcomes,” said Baker. “There is enormous momentum across the field, and we’re excited to be the trusted partner for companies, institutions, and leaders defining healthcare’s next frontier.”
Healthcare represents nearly 18% of U.S. GDP, and the Bureau of Labor Statistics projects it to be the nation’s fastest-growing industry for the next decade, adding an average of 1.9 million jobs annually. As AI impacts every industry, healthcare stands out as one of the most consequential sectors, transforming care and creating economic opportunity. Inkhouse partners with healthcare organizations to lead these conversations, helping them build visibility and trust through thoughtful storytelling that makes complex ideas accessible and human.
Inkhouse’s expanding work in this area includes companies advancing new approaches to healthcare delivery, operations, and patient experience:
- Innovaccer: The company developing AI infrastructure for autonomous healthcare operations to deliver better clinical and financial outcomes.
- Cognita: The healthcare AI company developing generative foundation models that interpret medical imaging and draft comprehensive radiology reports, helping radiologists deliver faster, more accurate, and accessible care while keeping physicians in control of final diagnostic decisions.
- Nabla: An adaptive agentic platform that supports a range of clinical workflows, care settings, and provider roles, empowering clinicians to dedicate more time to patient care.
- Thyme Care: The oncology care company aligning accountability across the full cancer care journey, coordinating patients, providers, and health plans around a shared model of care that drives better outcomes and lower costs for everyone.
Alongside Orchestra’s integrated communications, public affairs, and influencer capabilities, Inkhouse is helping organizations across the healthcare ecosystem build credibility and shape industry conversations amid significant change.
The agency’s tailored, high-impact storytelling strategy fueled significant growth across markets like healthcare, physical industries, and artificial intelligence in 2025. In 2023, Inkhouse joined Orchestra’s collective of leading communications agencies to bring its expertise in building visibility and credibility for innovative technology companies across a range of growth stages. Today, Orchestra supports clients across corporate, health, policy, nonprofit, and public affairs environments.
