Elligint Health Acquires Israeli AI Care Management Startup Laguna

Nov 12, 2026
US health insurer software provider Elligint Health is acquiring Laguna Health, whose AI records and assesses care management calls, in a deal reported at tens of millions of dollars.

Elligint Health, which sells care and utilisation management software to US health insurers, is acquiring Israeli startup Laguna Health, Calcalist reports. The value was not disclosed but is estimated at tens of millions of dollars.

Laguna's AI records conversations between insurer care teams and policyholders, runs quality checks, pulls out insights in real time and scores each interaction against the clinical and operational standards insurers must meet. The aim is to cut the time nurses and social workers spend on documentation.

Laguna, founded in 2020 by Yoni Stein and Yael Peled-Adam, has raised about $30 million from investors including Pitango, LionBird, SemperVirens and HC9. It will run as a wholly owned subsidiary and Elligint's AI development arm in Tel Aviv, with Stein staying on as CEO. Elligint, whose systems support care management for more than 13 million US policyholders, plans to double Laguna's team of about 20 people.
