OVERVIEW
A Seattle-based health information exchange served payers and providers across Washington, supporting hundreds of millions of data transactions each year at its peak. When Turning Point was appointed General Receiver in January 2024, working alongside receivership counsel Cairncross & Hempelmann, the company was still operating, with active customer contracts, employees, insurance programs, and creditor claims. Turning Point needed to maintain continuity while identifying a buyer, completing the sale and operational transition, and winding down the remaining estate under court supervision.
