These numbers are actually crazy
I love me a brilliant healthcare administrator, but our ratios are clearly just off (and getting more off)
As @JayRughani and @janerheetweets write, may the AI agents please go forth and prosper... (s/o @ProsperAI_HQ)

NEW: Prosper AI raised a $30M Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz.
The company is building an AI platform for the entire patient journey -- handling scheduling, insurance verification, patient billing, and payer calls across 150,000+ providers.
Congrats to the team!
Healthcare can’t hire fast enough. Job openings run ~2x hires, and the gap keeps widening.
We can’t staff our way out of this.
This is why we @a16z are leading Prosper’s $30M Series A, and I am joining the board. Proud to back them with @janerheetweets and the @a16z team.
New @a16z investment: We're leading Prosper AI's $30M Series A, & I'm joining the board.
Healthcare still runs on the phone: staff in headsets, scheduling visits, sitting on hold with insurers, and typing into the EHR one field at a time.
None of it is medicine, and all of it decides whether you get seen and whether your doctor gets paid.
The math keeps getting harder: we're adding administrators ~8x faster than doctors, yet healthcare job openings run ~2x hires and the gap is widening. We can't staff our way out of this.
@ProsperAI_HQ handles the phone-heavy clinic admin: scheduling, eligibility, and billing.
Built for the combinatorial complexity of large specialty care groups: 10+ locations, 100+ appointment types, 1,000+ insurance plan combinations.
In the last 6 months, Prosper has grown revenue 5x, now covering 150K+ providers and powering $1.3B in patient care.
Prosper’s founders @XDeGracia and @jm_mingot have felt every pain point Prosper solves. Xavier grew up inside his family's medical practice before going on to run large-scale call center operations. Josep digitized distribution for some of the largest insurance lines in the U.S.
That’s why @janerheetweets, the entire @a16z team, and I are fired up to back them, alongside @Base10Partners, @emergencecap, @Company, and @ycombinator.
Healthcare, it's time to go forth and Prosper.
At Prosper AI we are thrilled to have raised a $30M Series A led by @a16z
We’ve grown 5x in the last 6 months, supporting now +150,000 healthcare providers and 60+ healthcare organizations, including outpatient groups and enterprises backed by firms like Blackstone, KKR, and Bain Capital.
Healthcare's most influential organizations, including @athenahealth , the largest EHR for outpatient practices, are now our customers.
Prosper is the first AI platform to run the entire patient journey. 👇
