Censinet earns top TIME HealthTech rating for second straight year

Censinet was named to TIME’s World's Top HealthTech Companies of 2026 and moved up to the list’s highest tier, “Outstanding,” in Health Information & Management. The recognition highlights the Boston company’s healthcare risk intelligence platform as providers face more third-party, AI and operational risk.
