Candid Health CEO and co-founder Nick Perry said: “Most medical billing companies focus on resolving issues post-claims submission more efficiently, but we’re flipping the model.

“We have been rethinking medical billing from the ground up to automate complexity. This ensures healthcare providers can get paid, on time, and for less cost.”

With the backing of investors, Candid Health’s revenue cycle automation platform aims to make significant advancements in transforming healthcare billing practices.

Nourish co-founder Stephanie Liu said: “Candid Health transformed the way we do business.

“We went from a manual process with virtually every claim needing hands-on work to automation that submits claims efficiently and correctly.

“As a fast-growing healthcare provider, technology like this is crucial to our success. Candid Health has helped us achieve best-in-class collection rates while enabling us to deliver better service to our patients.”
