TTA’s Hot July: 23andMe settles data breach payout, Done Health fraud principals sentenced,, Resmed sells MatrixCare, Pearl Health’s big raise, OpenAI’s 5% offer, more!

10-13 July 2026

A quieter post holiday week, but with one major sale and one substantial raise. Resmed sold off their MatrixCare post-acute software business to private equity, for substantially less than they paid for it seven years ago. The big raise was Pearl Health’s. Not so pearly were the substantial sentences and fines given to Done Health’s principals for out of control Adderall prescribing and fraud. Nor was 23andMe’s data breach settlement of $47 million while still in bankruptcy, or another Oracle software vulnerability. And OpenAI’s offer of 5% to the US government–good deal or Trojan Horse? But there’s hope in the 26th clinical trial of Elon Musk’s Neuralink in a Canadian ALS patient.
