### Mission
**We are building an AI assistant that saves consumers time, money, and stress
on health insurance and benefits, starting first with medical bills.**
Medical bills are a massive problem. They are
[confusing](https://revcycleintelligence.com/news/medical-bills-are-confusing-
for-nearly-40-of-adults-survey-finds), over 40% [contain
errors](https://www.nbcnews.com/business/consumer/its-time-get-second-opinion-
paying-medical-bill-n545626), 17% of claims are [denied by
insurance](https://www.kff.org/private-insurance/issue-brief/claims-denials-
and-appeals-in-aca-marketplace-plans/), and often represent very large sums of
money. As a result, [100 million
Americans](https://kffhealthnews.org/news/article/diagnosis-debt-
investigation-100-million-americans-hidden-medical-debt/) are saddled with
medical debt, and medical bills cause nearly [70% of personal
bankruptcies](https://www.cnbc.com/2019/02/11/this-is-the-real-reason-most-
americans-file-for-bankruptcy.html) in the US.
Dealing with unexpectedly high medical bills is time-consuming, complex, and
stressful. Stuck between their providers, payers, and bill collectors,
consumers too frequently have to make numerous phone calls, wait on hold, and
even send paper letters and faxes. Appealing [insurance
denials](https://www.propublica.org/article/how-to-appeal-insurance-denials-
too-complicated), resolving billing errors, negotiating bills, and filing out-
of-network claims require expert knowledge that most consumers don't have.
Thanks to AI and new healthcare regulations around data access and price
transparency, we can now automate this soul-crushing work and empower
consumers to fight back against this broken system. Beyond medical bills, we
help people through their entire healthcare journey as they pick their health
insurance plans and benefits, or look for care that fits their budget.
### Team
MedBill AI is founded by 2 Oscar Health veterans, the first health insurance
company built around a full stack technology platform and a relentless focus
on serving its members. We joined Oscar pre-product, stayed through the IPO
and helped it grow to over 1M members. We've worked across Oscar's entire
stack and led many key projects, including its in-house telemedicine platform
and claim system, positioning us uniquely to take on MedBill AI. We're proud
of how Oscar raised the bar for what people should expect from their health
insurance, and we’re excited to have an even larger impact with MedBill AI by
taking the side of consumers unequivocally, regardless of their health
insurance.
We’re lucky to be backed by the founders and investors at Hugging Face, Oscar
Health, TrueBill, CaseText, Forerunner Ventures, Red Sea Ventures, RRE
Ventures, and much more. We are well-funded for the next few years.
