Birmingham, AL — January 22, 2026 — Clinekt Health, a healthcare technology company specializing in AI-driven patient access and pre-screening, today announced a strategic partnership with Athelas, a healthcare automation platform supporting clinical, administrative, and operational workflows.
‍

The partnership combines Clinekt Health’s AI-driven screening and diagnostic agent with Athelas’ automation infrastructure to help healthcare organizations identify, qualify, and route patients before they reach clinic staff—reducing administrative burden while improving speed to care and operational efficiency.
‍

Unlike traditional digital intake tools that simply collect information, Clinekt Health’s AI agent actively pre-screens patients using condition-specific, diagnostic logic, evaluating symptoms, risk factors, and intent to determine clinical appropriateness and next-step routing. This ensures that only qualified, relevant patient demand enters downstream workflows.
‍

Athelas provides an automation layer that enables healthcare organizations to operationalize this pre-screened demand. Its platform is designed to automate and streamline workflows across patient access, administrative operations, and financial processes, helping provider organizations reduce manual work, improve responsiveness, and scale operations efficiently.
‍

Through the integration, pre-screened patients from Clinekt Health can be routed into automated operational workflows supported by Athelas, including scheduling and follow-through, creating a more connected, efficient, and scalable front door to care.
‍

The partnership is designed to support specialty practices, orthopedic groups, health systems, and other healthcare organizations seeking to modernize patient access while maintaining operational control, compliance, and patient-first outcomes.
