At AKASA™ we believe every dollar spent on healthcare matters because healthcare matters to everyone. We’re on a mission to remedy the financial and operational complexity crippling healthcare in America.

AKASA is the leading developer of AI for healthcare operations. AKASA scales human intelligence with leading-edge AI and ML securely trained on customer data to learn unique systems, continuously adapt to changing environments, and deliver comprehensive automation and analytics for complex workflows.

Our founding team includes Silicon Valley leaders who have founded or been founding team members of multiple companies with successful exits, some in excess of $350 million. We convened a team uniquely qualified to bring modern solutions and some of the most advanced technologies to healthcare revenue cycle management.

We’ve built a cross-functional skill set deep into the DNA of the company. We have technology experts from the top Silicon Valley technology companies, many with graduate degrees in machine learning. We also have senior leaders from the frontlines of healthcare with decades of experience leading teams of medical billers at some of the most prominent healthcare institutions in the US. And we have a deep bench of talent from healthcare services firms like the Advisory Board, Optum and Triage Consulting. Only with this unique blend of talent could we develop an entirely new approach to automation that is purpose built for revenue cycle management in healthcare.
