TTA’s Spring Fever: VA resumes Oracle EHR rollout, Click clicks on $50M, 27% layoff, IKS Health may buy TruBridge, and TELCOR’s tuck-in of Sample.

17 April 2026

The last couple of weeks must have exhausted everyone, because this week is downright sleepy. As scheduled, VA finally resumed its Oracle Health EHR rollout with four health systems in Michigan–the first since 2022. Nine more to come if these go well. For companies, spring fever deals were absent. Digital schizophrenia adjunct treatment Click Therapeutics raised both $50 million to move to commercialization, then pink slipped 27% of current staff. TELCOR tucked in Sample to bolster AI  in the RCM area. Pending in RCM, IKS Health may be making a $600 million offer for TruBridge–but that hasn’t been finalized. Yet.
