Clinician burnout and thin margins don't have to move together.
Find us at @BeckersHR's Rural Health Leadership Summit (June 11-12, Chicago) at booth #7 with Lexi Hull, Paul Pettit, and Sean Edrington talking about both.
@sequoia Capital's @Konstantine Buhler named Commure on @FoxBusiness as one of three AI companies rewiring healthcare. Sequoia's bar is straightforward: real problems, big markets.
For thirty years, software promised to fix healthcare's administrative work. It didn't, because software could not actually do the work: the calls, the notes, the codes, the claims, the denials, and the appeals. AI does. Today 85%+ of our revenue cycle work completes without a human in the loop, and clinicians get hours back each week.

The clinicians getting the most from ambient AI aren't using it differently. They're thinking out loud differently.
Dr. James Colbert shares five habits: narrate your thinking. Verify with the patient. Talk through the exam. Review the plan. Capture your reasoning after.
Result: better notes, less time charting: https://t.co/7pOJliqoLZ
Thanks @Nasdaq for the shout-out on Times Square! Athelas/Commure is already running inside 500 health systems and physician-owned practices across the country, and we're just getting started!
We're hiring a Senior Fullstack Engineer to join our Ambient AI team and help us build a platform that lets clinicians actually focus on their patients.
In this role, you'll work on the platform that spans the entire patient care journey. From real-time audio processing and LLM-powered clinical documentation to AI-driven billing automation. You'll be shipping product that's actively used inside some of the largest health systems in the country. This is a full-time role based in Mountain View, SF, or NYC.

@tanay_tandon sat down with @amyfeldman at @Forbes last week to talk through @CommureOS's end-to-end RCM platform and how we're putting our new round of funding to work.
We're scaling across specialty practices, hospitals, and health systems, while advancing the clinical workflows beneath it: ambient documentation, autonomous coding, and the shared intelligence layer handling payer rules, denials, and clinical context that general AI models miss.

Patient access. Ambient documentation. End-to-end billing. One platform where each part feeds the next.

Commure Ambient now integrates end-to-end with @cerner_corp. Patient context in, finished notes into DynDoc or PowerNote, signed in PowerChart. 2,000+ sites already on Ambient. Now with full Cerner support.

The EHR didn't fix the documentation problem. It just moved it from paper to a keyboard.
Donald Lazure, PA has practiced through both eras and he knows why ambient AI is the first tool that actually changes the equation.
Dr. Darin Brannan and @bethanychildrns showed what it looks like when ambient AI scales across a full health system, nearly 2 hours a day back to clinicians. The industry is ready to move.
Dr. Aabha Morey's parents were physicians. She grew up watching administrative work take them away from family.
That's the origin story behind how she thinks about where autonomous coding is taking medicine. https://t.co/DTB1NGUcxt
LLMs built for clinical reality, co-developed with the physicians using them.
Commure puts engineers inside hospitals to make that happen. We're hiring: https://t.co/SD1o8Jc77D
Payers consolidate. Providers absorb the consequences.
Commure is provider-first, provider-only. Every tool we build helps health systems earn back what they're owed.

Agentic AI is where VC is moving. Commure is where it's already deployed: inside 500+ health systems, completing 85%+ of revenue cycle work without a human.

$1 trillion in healthcare admin every year. Scheduling. Prior auth. Appeals. Coding. Billing.
Tanay on how Commure is automating all of it: https://t.co/1xXLBnj9fu
85%+ of revenue cycle work completed without a human in the loop. 200M+ patient encounters a year. $750M raised to date.
@tanay_tandon sat down with @MollySOShea at @sourceryy to break down what it's taken to build the financial infrastructure running inside more than 500 healthcare organizations across 3,000+ sites of care. They dive into the $70M round, the CVF structure, why point solutions lose, and what comes next.
BREAKING: Commure Hits a $7 Billion Valuation
Announcing $70M in new funding led by General Catalyst, with Sequoia & Morgan Stanley
Total funding to date: $750M
Interview with CEO Tanay Tandon
@CommureOS is becoming one of the largest AI infrastructure platforms in healthcare:
→ 500+ healthcare organizations
→ 3,000+ sites of care
→ 200M+ patient encounters annually
→ Tens of billions (!!) in annual claims processed
→ 85%+ of revenue cycle work completed autonomously
→ ARR doubled 3 years in a row
→ 1,200 employees globally
Commure says its AI agents are automating documentation, coding, billing, denials, appeals, scheduling, & revenue cycle workflows across hospitals & physician groups.
P.S. Tanay (@tanay_tandon) started the company at 18.
“Point solutions are going to d*e.”

We’ve raised $70M at a $7B valuation, led by @generalcatalyst, with participation from @sequoia Capital, @MorganStanley, and @Kirkland_Ellis.
The $1 trillion spent on healthcare administration every year is a compounding tax on every doctor, every patient, every health system, and every physician-owned practice in the country.
This capital will allow us to turn labor into software at an even faster clip, and to answer the ever-increasing demand we’re seeing. More specialties. More of the difficult, end-to-end work that no one else will fight in the mud to solve.
