ABOUT CERTIFY:
We are on a mission to change how the US healthcare industry deals with provider data. Our goal is to reduce the cost of healthcare by streamlining access to provider data and reducing administrative and regulatory burden on healthcare organizations.
Certify is revolutionizing the healthcare industry by laying the infrastructure upon which the next generation of provider-centric applications (network adequacy, accuracy, provider utilization, etc.) will be built. As innovative digital health plans and provider care models continue to scale and challenge traditional care models, the need for a centralized data infrastructure has never been greater. Our platform will support the future of healthcare innovation by becoming the source of truth of provider data and making that data easily accessible and actionable for the entire healthcare ecosystem.
We have built an API-first, UI-agnostic, end-to-end provider network management platform automating licensing, enrollment, credentialing, and network monitoring. With direct integrations into 100’s of primary sources, we are uniquely positioned to enhance visibility into the entire provider network management process. Our team has more than 25+ years of combined experience building provider data systems at Oscar Health and are backed by top-tier VC firms who share our vision of creating a one-of-a-kind healthcare cloud that removes the friction surrounding provider data.
