CMI.ai by Blue Purpose — the first AI solution within the VIBE platform built to master complex reimbursement rules nationwide, delivering real-time detection, state-specific scoring, and actionable insights that drive measurable outcomes for long-term care providers.

TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Purpose, the innovative technology company behind the award-winning VIBE platform, today announced the launch of CMI.ai, a groundbreaking AI-driven tool that revolutionizes how long-term care facilities manage and optimize Case Mix Index (CMI).

Built on VIBE's most advanced AI platform for Long-Term Care, CMI.ai automatically scrubs the actual medical record in real time to detect criteria changes that can impact reimbursement, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual chart reviews. This new tool empowers MDS Coordinators, administrators, and operators to capture every qualifying change instantly, ensuring accurate reimbursement and improved compliance.

"We designed CMI.ai by listening to caregivers and operators who are in the trenches every day," said Don Glidewell, Founder & CEO of Blue Purpose. "By combining their insights with AI's ability to process complex clinical and operational data in real time, we're delivering a solution that saves time, captures revenue, and strengthens compliance across all state-specific rules."

Key Features of CMI.ai

• AI-Powered Chart Scrubbing – Reviews nursing notes, physician orders, MAR/TAR, and therapy documentation automatically.
  
  
• Real-Time Criteria Detection – Auto-detects changes instantly, without manual chart review.
  
  
• State-Specific CMI Scoring (First-of-Its-Kind) – Calculates current CMI for each facility according to unique state rules, including RUG III, RUG IV, PDPM Nursing, PDPM Nsg/NTA, and more.
  
  
• Automatic HIPPS/RUG Comparison – Compares last recorded level with current records to flag qualifying criteria changes.
  
  
• Infused Operational Analytics (First-of-Its-Kind) – Merges CMI results with labor, census, therapy, and compliance data for never-before-seen operational insights.
  
  
• Missed Opportunity Prevention – Captures changes before the next OBRA or OSA assessment to prevent lost reimbursement opportunities.

Real Impact for Long-Term Care Operators

By eliminating hours of manual review each week, CMI.ai frees staff to focus on direct resident care while ensuring no revenue or compliance opportunities are missed. With state-specific criteria built in, operators can know their exact CMI score at any time – per resident, quarterly, or by custom reporting parameters.
