Built by Healthcare Infrastructure Veterans
Mosaic Life Tech was founded by Teresa and Jim Younkin — two healthcare executives with a combined 40+ years of experience building the infrastructure that makes healthcare work.
We've written federal standards, built statewide health information exchanges, led ONC initiatives, and advised executives across payer, provider, and public health sectors. Now we help healthcare leaders navigate AI governance with the same rigor and restraint we brought to interoperability, data governance, and federal program management.

Jim Younkin, MBA, FACHDM
Founder, CTO
Federal Health IT & AI Systems Architect
After more than a decade in health IT consulting and hospital operations, Jim brought that experience to central Pennsylvania. He served as director and later CIO at a rural community hospital, then joined Geisinger before founding KeyHIE, Pennsylvania's first regional health information exchange, serving 4M+ patients across rural and underserved communities throughout central and northeast Pennsylvania. A native to the region, he also led telehealth initiatives built specifically to reach populations with limited access to care. That history shapes how Mosaic Life Tech approaches rural health AI governance — with direct knowledge of the communities, the infrastructure challenges, and what it takes to make technology work there.

Our Commitment to Rural Health
Our commitment to rural health runs deeper than a service line. Jim founded Pennsylvania's first regional health information exchange to connect rural and underserved communities to the care infrastructure that larger systems take for granted. That work taught us that technology serves people best when it's designed for their specific reality: limited IT staff, thin infrastructure margins, and populations that have historically been underserved by healthcare innovation.
The Rural Health Transformation Program represents a historic federal investment in these communities. As AI tools become part of how rural health organizations deliver care and manage their programs, governance matters more in these settings, not less. Organizations with fewer resources can't absorb governance failures, and the patients they serve deserve the same oversight standards as any major health system. That's work we're built for.
Our Philosophy
"We're not here to sell you AI or scare you about AI. We're here to help you govern AI decisions with the same discipline you bring to clinical quality and financial risk.
AI governance is a leadership problem, not a technology problem.
We help executives see it that way."
That's why we focus on one thing: helping healthcare leaders build governance they can defend.
