Anvil is an insurance operations platform for care companies. The five workstreams are payer contracting, credentialing, RCM, eligibility, and compliance. We run them first under our entity so you can launch, then under yours so you keep the asset.
Payer contracting, credentialing, RCM, eligibility, and compliance
What you would have to hire for each workstream, and what Anvil runs instead.
What hiring for each one costs is in the five workstreams of insurance operations.
| Workstream | Build it yourself | With Anvil |
|---|---|---|
| Payer contracting | Contracting lead with payer relationships in each state, plus counsel for contract review. | Rent: you bill under our existing contracts. Own: we contract your entity with commercial, Medicaid, and MA payers, and you see the rate ladder. Psychiatry, therapy, and ABA groups start with behavioral health payer contracting. |
| Credentialing | One credentialing specialist per 30-40 clinicians, a CAQH process, and someone chasing payer portals every week. | Roster-adds under our PC in weeks. Full credentialing files under your entity, largely automated, tracked in one place. |
| RCM | Certified coders, a billing team, AR specialists, and charting standards that survive an audit. | Coding, claims, denial management, and AR. Clean-claim rate reported monthly. Claims risk on us during rental. Coding, claims, and denials are telehealth revenue cycle management. |
| Eligibility | A clearinghouse contract, an engineer to integrate 270/271, and ops to handle the payer outages. | One API and a hosted widget. Soft check at booking, copay estimate, outage detection built in. |
| Compliance | Healthcare counsel for AKS and each state CPOM analysis, plus a security program. | Rental structured for the AKS personal services safe harbor. Your PC structured for CPOM by state. HIPAA in place; SOC 2 Type II in progress. See whether to rent a PC or own one and how corporate practice of medicine for telehealth applies. |
Two entities. Volume moves from ours to yours.
This is the diagram to send your co-founder.
The second entity is the point: it is how you own your payer contracts instead of renting them, and it is papered under the MSO-PC structure for telehealth. Already on another vendor? See switching from a network rental vendor.
