Company
Certainly Health
Marketplace to book doctors and avoid surprise bills
We built a marketplace where patients enter their insurance details and visit reason, then use machine learning to predict and guarantee their out-of-pocket costs for every health provider. This transparency helps patients avoid surprise medical bills. On the provider side, we offer a system that ensures their patients reliably pay their bills, making the entire process smoother for both parties.
We're currently based in New York City, NY and plan to keep the company based there after YC.
We live and work in New York City, which puts us close to a large pool of health providers and patients who face surprise medical bills. Being here helps us understand the problem deeply and build strong relationships.
