As a "recovering radiologist" from Mayo Clinic and Harvard, Dr. Jeremy Friese experienced the struggles of prior authorization firsthand. After learning that payers also despised the cumbersome, costly process, he set out on a mission to bring providers and payers together to automate the problem so patients can get the care they deserve while reducing the costs and waste that plague our healthcare system. Six years ago, the team began building an artificial intelligence solution to solve prior authorization for all medical specialties.
After a couple acquisitions and tens of millions of dollars invested in the technology, Dr. Friese returned with Humata Health and an amazing team. While they have helped millions of patients, the time is now to deliver truly "frictionless prior authorization" at scale so every patient gets the care they deserve and the process becomes touchless. As a physician-led company, Humata is solely focused on solving the complexities of prior authorization by seamlessly connecting payers and providers, leveraging deep clinical expertise and advanced AI to streamline approvals, reduce administrative burden, and ensure patients receive timely care.
