Our take

The US healthcare system is both financially and operationally complex. It is estimated to cost patients and providers $500 billion annually in medical billing and insurance administrative expenses. AKASA, formerly Alpha Health, addresses this issue with its Unified Automation technology

The technology is designed to streamline revenue cycle operations by combining human expertise with AI-driven automation. It deploys machine-learning tools supported by revenue cycle specialists who can handle more complex cases and refine the algorithms.

This blend of human and machine intelligence is a stand-out approach, which could well serve as a blueprint for other sectors. Meanwhile, AKASA will continue to help reshape the healthcare industry by solving its complex operational challenges.
