SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 28, 2025 – Amendola Communications (Amendola), part of Supreme Group, announced today that it has been selected by Life365 Health, a leading developer of virtual care technology solutions that enable healthcare delivery at home, to implement a national PR/marketing program.
“Life365 Health chose Amendola to help drive awareness and interest in our AI-driven platform, because of its deep understanding of healthcare, strong media relationships, senior level team and expert writers,” said Kent Dicks, CEO and founder. “Our technology goes beyond remote patient monitoring (RPM) to help healthcare organizations manage large patient populations in a proactive, pre-emptive, prioritized, and personalized manner. We look forward to collaborating with Amendola to more broadly share the story of how we help healthcare organizations monitor populations, improve patient engagement, and control costs.”
Amendola is implementing a comprehensive program of messaging, marketing, public relations, and social media to demonstrate Life365 Health’s industry-leading technology and services, accomplishments, customer wins, and industry partnerships, including those with Veterans Affairs and Microsoft.
Life365 Health has continually set the standard for innovation in RPM and virtual care solutions. The company’s mission is to enable new models of care where technologies, like AI and machine learning, play a crucial role in connecting with a large population of patients to receive insights from home to prioritize those who may be headed to more costly locations.
“Far too often, the RPM process engages with patients far too late, after patients have been discharged from the hospital in a reactive and expensive manner,” said Jodi Amendola, agency CEO. “Life365 is changing this outdated and ineffective model by advancing healthcare delivery with leading-edge technology that enhances patient engagement, personalized care, and facilitates proactive interventions to improve outcomes. We are delighted to help this leader in at-home virtual care expand its customer base and market presence.”

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Jan. 14, 2025 – Amendola, a nationally recognized, award-winning healthcare technology and life sciences public relations and marketing firm, announced that it has been selected by Red Rover Health, which enables healthcare providers to integrate third-party solutions into their electronic health record (EHR) systems, to execute a national public relations program.
Red Rover Health is collaborating with Amendola to generate awareness about its healthcare integration platform that allows “best of breed” healthcare software solutions to securely integrate with EHR systems. As a result of the platform’s availability, healthcare organizations now have access to world-class solutions to make the most of their existing EHR investments.
Amendola is crafting a comprehensive PR plan to showcase Red Rover Health’s industry-leading technology and services, accomplishments, customer wins, and industry partnerships.
“Red Rover serves as a central platform for healthcare innovation,” said John Orosco, CEO, Red Rover Health. “Our partnership with Amendola will highlight how engaging with an integration partner to handle interoperability needs is a practical approach for healthcare organizations looking to enhance data exchange between different systems.”
Jodi Amendola, president of Amendola, said: “EHR systems are frequently designed as one-size-fits all solutions with limited customization options that do not align with providers’ real-world workflows. This disconnect can create frustration, inefficiency, and unnecessary costs for providers. Our strategic PR and content program with Red Rover is educating the market on how health systems can improve interoperability, streamline workflows, and enhance data exchange with the right EHR integration partner.”
Recently, Red Rover earned SOC 2 Type 2 certification after a rigorous audit process confirmed that its platform’s information security practices, policies, procedures, and operations meet the SOC 2 standards for security, availability and confidentiality set by the American Institute of CPAs.

Fifth acquisition joins growing platform of world-class health-focused businesses
WEST CHESTER, PA AND SCOTTSDALE, AZ, Dec. 4, 2024—Supreme Group today announced its strategic acquisition of Amendola Communications (Amendola), a recognized leader in providing integrated public relations, marketing, and social media services to healthcare, health tech and life sciences companies. Amendola will continue to operate under its brand name as a standalone organization within Supreme Group, with Jodi Amendola continuing to lead the organization as president.
“During the past two decades, we have considered the acquisitions of our client companies among our many successes, because it means you have built something of value that can be even more powerful as part of something bigger,” said Jodi Amendola. “Joining Supreme Group is a founder’s dream, as we will not only retain Amendola’s autonomy to deliver the same strategic approach and services our clients have come to trust, but we will also level up our offerings by tapping into the wealth of expertise of the other Supreme Group companies, including digital marketing, enhanced lead generation, creative design services, and PhD-level clinical expertise. It is the ideal fit for Amendola clients and our team.”
Amendola is the fifth agency to join Supreme’s growing strategic platform dedicated to providing best-in-class marketing and communications services to a broad range of healthcare and life sciences companies. Supreme Group was formed following Trinity Hunt’s majority investment in the digital agency Supreme Optimization in March 2023.
Amendola was founded more than two decades ago by Jodi and Ted Amendola to help promote emerging digital health technologies with a very clearly defined purpose: To improve healthcare for all stakeholders. Over the years, the company has expanded to include healthcare and life sciences more broadly, while continuing to grow as a leading health tech agency. From Fortune 500 companies to startups, Amendola has consistently taken companies from virtual unknowns to household names, and its programs have contributed to successful funding efforts, profitable acquisitions and IPOs. Its senior level “A-team” helps to set the agency apart. The company’s 25 employees serve approximately 50 clients.
“When we learned about Amendola and its strong reputation and footprint, particularly in health tech, we knew the agency would fit in perfectly with the Supreme Group family of companies,” said Tom Donnelly, CEO, Supreme Group. “We’re impressed by Amendola’s entrepreneurial, results-driven focus, and excited to help take the team to the next level with the combined strength of our experienced Supreme Group executive team and the platform’s sister agencies.”
In addition to Amendola, the Supreme Group’s platform includes:
- Supreme Optimization, a full-service life science- and healthcare-focused digital agency (founded by Sheldon Zhai in 2012 to provide best-in-class services including paid advertising, SEO, content marketing, analytics and website development)
- Health+Commerce, an integrated marketing and public relations agency serving medtech, biopharma and digital health companies
- Clarity Quest, a health tech marketing and communications agency
- BioStrata, a UK-based agency offering comprehensive marketing communication services to the life sciences sector
Mike Steindorf, partner at Trinity Hunt, said: “Trinity Hunt is a growth-oriented private equity firm that builds world-class companies within healthcare. With Tom’s leadership as CEO and the supercharged platform of Supreme Optimization, Clarity Quest, BioStrata, Health+Commerce, and now Amendola, we are building something powerful in the life sciences and healthcare marketing and communications services business. We look forward to supporting and growing these companies and adding additional complementary businesses to the platform.”
California Counsel Group and Gabriel & Ashworth served as advisors to Amendola.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Aug. 22, 2024 – Amendola, a nationally recognized, award-winning healthcare technology and life sciences public relations and marketing firm, today announced that it has been selected to implement a national public relations, content and social media program by Carta Healthcare, whose mission is to reduce the costs, save time and improve the quality of clinical data abstraction.
“As a six-time Amendola client, the agency is part of my magic formula for business development success through powerful storytelling, category creation, and thought leadership,” said Greg Miller, Vice President of Business Development for Carta Healthcare. “We are excited to have Amendola as an extension of our team to help promote our belief that data is the most essential ingredient for improving healthcare.”
Clinical data abstraction is essential for hospitals to improve patient care, meet quality standards, and reduce costs. However, manual data abstraction is inefficient, labor-intensive, and expensive, leading to poor quality data. Currently, due to labor shortages and overworked staff, these methods are not sustainable and increase healthcare delivery costs. The current manual approach is inefficient and tedious, resulting in overworked and burnt-out staff.
To that end, Carta has developed Atlas™, an AI-powered platform that automates data abstraction for clinical registries by efficiently extracting information from medical records. By leveraging AI, Atlas increases data availability and accuracy, enabling staff to focus on other tasks and clinicians to prioritize patient care. This is executed through a “human in the loop” approach, where expert abstractors review the quality of the AI-abstracted data. Carta’s team of abstractors work alongside current staff to ensure quality of data and seamless processes.
“The time and effort required to cleanse and normalize data for quality initiatives too often depletes the resources essential for delivering high-quality patient care,” said agency CEO Jodi Amendola. “We are excited to help Carta Healthcare educate the market on the importance of automating and streamlining the labor-intensive process of locating and interpreting patient data for clinical registries.”

About Carta Healthcare
At Carta Healthcare, we believe high-quality data is essential to improving healthcare. Current methods to abstract data for clinical registries are labor-intensive, time-consuming, and costly. By combining artificial intelligence (AI) technology with skilled expert abstractors, Carta Healthcare helps you abstract data faster, more efficiently, at a lower cost, while delivering the highest quality data.
Learn more about how Carta Healthcare applies the power of AI technology, combined with expert clinical data abstractors, to harness data and insights as catalysts for healthcare transformation at www.carta.healthcare.
