Egress Health: AI that gets doctors paid
See original launch post ›

Hi! We’re Alex and Matt, co-founders of Egress Health. We’re building AI agents to automate the work healthcare providers do to get paid by insurance (aka “revenue cycle management”). Our first customers are dental clinics.

TL;DR:

  • Our average customer eliminates 1-2 full time employees and sees a 5-15% increase in collections.
  • Since launching in late October, we’ve expanded to dozens of locations across the country and processed $14M in reimbursements.
  • Watch our video:

Problem:

In the back of every healthcare provider's office there are staff who spend their whole day doing repetitive, mundane tasks necessary to get reimbursed by insurance. Failure to keep up with this work results in significant (sometimes existential) financial loss.

We learned about these consequences from Matt’s mom, who is a dental provider. Suffering from staff turnover, the practice where she worked struggled to collect even 70% of what they were owed and nearly missed payroll as a result.

This story is not uncommon. Healthcare providers will spend >$160B on revenue cycle work this year and even the best run clinics still won’t collect everything they are owed.

We’re building Egress Health to help providers collect 100%.

Solution:

We’re building AI agents that complete these revenue cycle tasks faster, and more accurately than any human. Our agents navigate insurance websites and practice management systems, automating away the need for administrative staff and billing specialists. Our average customer eliminates 1-2 full time employees after implementing and sees a 5-15% increase in collections.

Since launching in late October, we’ve expanded to dozens of locations across the country and processed $14M in reimbursements.

Team:

Alex and Matt met as undergrads at Harvard, where they were roommates.

Asks:

We’re looking to partner with independent practices, DSOs, and DPOs looking to automate their administrative workflows. If that sounds like you, please book a meeting or reach out to us at founders@tryegress.com to learn more.
