Candid Health

Automates healthcare revenue cycle management.

Overview

Candid Health automates revenue cycle management for healthcare providers. Its platform monitors the billing and insurance-collection process, detects issues that slow or block payments, and automatically flags and fixes problems to optimize collections. The product integrates with both custom and commercial healthcare IT systems via APIs to fit into existing workflows, and is offered on a subscription basis. This combination of automated issue detection, auto-remediation, and seamless integration distinguishes it from competitors by focusing on reducing manual billing effort and improving cash flow. The company’s goal is to help healthcare providers increase payment capture rates and shorten the time to reimbursement.
