Cohere Health’s clinical intelligence platform delivers AI-powered solutions that streamline access to quality care by improving payer-provider collaboration, cost containment, and healthcare economics. Cohere Health works with over 660,000 providers and handles over 12 million prior authorization requests annually. Its responsible AI auto-approves up to 90% of requests for millions of health plan members.

With the acquisition of ZignaAI, we’ve further enhanced our platform by launching our Payment Integrity Suite, anchored by Cohere Validate™, an AI-driven clinical and coding validation solution that operates in near real-time. By unifying pre-service authorization data with post-service claims validation, we’re creating a transparent healthcare ecosystem that reduces waste, improves payer-provider collaboration and patient outcomes, and ensures providers are paid promptly and accurately.
