Cotiviti provides healthcare data analytics and payment integrity services for health plans, providers, and retailers. It uses analytics and technology to review medical claims before and after payment to identify improper or duplicate payments, validate coding, and recover overpayments. The company combines capabilities from its predecessors (Connolly and iHealth Technologies) into a single end-to-end platform for pre-payment and post-payment review, enabling more accurate, efficient claims processing. Compared with competitors, Cotiviti leverages its large-scale data assets, extensive experience in healthcare payer analytics, and a broad, end-to-end workflow that covers the full lifecycle of claims payment and audit. Its goal is to reduce waste and abuse in the U.S. healthcare system by improving payment accuracy and recovering improper payments across the claims process.

Cotiviti launches AI-enabled Proactive COB to resolve health insurance coordination at enrollment

Cotiviti has launched Proactive COB, a coordination of benefits capability that uses AI to identify health insurance coverage issues at member enrolment, before claims are submitted. The solution analyses enrollment and maintenance transactions to detect coverage discrepancies early, allowing health plans to prevent payment errors rather than recover overpayments after the fact. Traditional COB approaches rely on retrospective discovery methods, often missing errors until after claims are paid. Proactive COB combines AI-driven prioritisation with validated member databases and over 25 years of COB experience to maintain accurate coverage records throughout the benefit lifecycle. The capability operates on enrollment data and supports automated updates to eligibility platforms, reducing manual intervention whilst maintaining audit trails. Cotiviti's platform serves customers covering over 300 million members and patients in the US.
