Company Summary

CoPatient audits and appeals medical bills for individuals and their employers. Individuals have few tools or trusted resources to know if the bills they receive are accurate and fair. We find errors in 75% of the bills reviewed, realizing a 30% savings for the consumer. By bringing the experience online and applying a continuously evolving set of business logic we can automate and scale this hisotrically low margin advocacy service.
