# Deterministic Agentic AI for Healthcare Operations | Kognitos

> Deterministic agentic AI that automates claims management, prior authorization, billing, and eligibility for healthcare teams — with neurosymbolic architecture that guarantees hallucination-free results. HIPAA-compliant, SOC 2 certified, governed by design.

## The Problem

Your revenue cycle is bleeding margin. Here's what it's costing you.

- **$5M+** lost to denied claims annually — Up to 90% of denials are preventable. Most tools catch issues after the fact, not before submission.
- **3–5 days** wasted per prior authorization — Patients wait, procedures get delayed, and revenue sits in limbo while staff chase payer portals and fax machines.
- **4 vendors** for one revenue cycle — Denial management, prior auth, eligibility, billing — each from a different vendor with its own data model, contract, and integration headache.

Plus: your best biller retires and takes 20 years of payer-specific nuance with them. Every new mandate means a six-month IT project. And HIPAA compliance is bolted on, not built in.

## Live Healthcare Apps

Production-grade healthcare apps built in hours. Try them now.

Each app was designed on the Kognitos platform. Scalable database, governed workflows, RBAC, audit trails, and exception handling — all production-ready and HIPAA-compliant.

### 1. Provider Claims Processor

Automates the provider billing workflow from charge capture through claim submission and payment posting. Tracks claim status, identifies underpayments, and accelerates revenue collection across payers.

```
Match claim to encounter by patient ID and DOS.
If billed amount > allowed amount, flag as underpayment.
Route to collections if unpaid after 30 days.
```

- End-to-end provider billing automation
- Payment posting and reconciliation
- **Results:** 60% reduction in billing cycle time, 3x faster claim resolution

### 2. Payer Claims Analysis

Provides payer-side claims analytics and review. Analyzes claims patterns, validates medical necessity, identifies fraud indicators, and generates compliance reports for regulatory submissions.

```
For each claim in batch:
  Validate medical necessity against payer policy.
  If documentation missing, request from provider.
  Flag fraud indicators exceeding threshold.
```

- Claims pattern analysis across providers
- Fraud and abuse indicator detection
- **Results:** 40% faster claims adjudication, 25% reduction in improper payments

### 3. 340B Discount Eligibility Check

Automates HRSA 340B program eligibility verification using the 6-factor test. Validates patient encounters, provider status, and prescription data to ensure compliant 340B pricing — reducing audit risk and manual review time.

```
Check patient against HRSA 6-factor test.
If encounter qualifies AND provider is registered,
  approve for 340B pricing.
Log decision with full audit trail.
```

- Automated HRSA 6-factor eligibility check
- Audit-ready documentation and run history
- **Results:** 85% reduction in manual eligibility review, 99% audit compliance accuracy

### 4. Patient Referral Processing

Automates the referral intake workflow — capturing referral details, validating insurance and authorization, matching patients to specialists, and routing with complete clinical context for faster scheduling.

```
Extract referral details from incoming fax.
Verify insurance and authorization status.
Match to specialist by specialty, location, and availability.
```

- Referral intake and data extraction
- Specialist matching and scheduling
- **Results:** 70% reduction in referral processing time, 50% fewer referral-related delays

### 5. Patient Call Records Analysis

Retrieves patient call records from SharePoint, analyzes interactions including medications and ER visits, generates comprehensive reports with visual timelines, and sends formatted summaries to Teams.

```
Retrieve patient call records from SharePoint.
Analyze for medication changes and ER visits.
Generate timeline report and send summary to Teams.
```

- Automated call record retrieval from SharePoint
- Visual timeline and report generation
- **Results:** 80% reduction in manual record review, 5min from call data to Teams summary

These apps were each designed in hours on the Kognitos platform. Your workflows are different — describe them in plain English and Kognitos builds a production-grade app with governance, audit, and scale built in.

## FAQ

**How can AI automate claims denial management?**
AI automates claims denial management by detecting denial patterns, categorizing root causes, assembling supporting documentation, and auto-resubmitting corrected claims within payer deadlines. Kognitos's Claims Lifecycle Manager uses English-as-Code rules to monitor remittance files, identify actionable denials, match to payer-specific resubmission requirements, and route appeals with full context — recovering revenue that would otherwise be written off.

**What is agentic AI in healthcare?**
Agentic AI in healthcare refers to autonomous software that can perceive, decide, act, and adapt within healthcare workflows — from claims processing to prior authorization to patient intake. Unlike traditional RPA, agentic AI handles exceptions, learns from human guidance, and executes multi-step processes. Kognitos ships pre-built healthcare workflows and lets teams build unlimited more in plain English — all executed deterministically with zero hallucinations.

**How does Kognitos ensure HIPAA compliance?**
Kognitos is HIPAA-compliant by design: full PHI handling with end-to-end encryption, granular role-based access controls, comprehensive audit trails logging every action, and signed Business Associate Agreements. The platform is also SOC 2 Type II certified.

**How does Kognitos eliminate hallucinations in healthcare automation?**
Healthcare cannot tolerate AI improvisation. Kognitos uses a patented neurosymbolic architecture that separates intent interpretation from execution. An LLM understands your business rules written in plain English, but a deterministic Symbolic Executor handles all execution. It cannot improvise, cannot hallucinate, and every variable is recorded.

**How does Kognitos handle exceptions in healthcare workflows?**
When an automation encounters an exception — a claim with missing data, an auth request that doesn't match payer rules, an eligibility check with conflicting results — Kognitos routes the issue with full context and a suggested resolution. Once a human resolves it, the platform permanently encodes that fix into its deterministic logic. Over time, 90%+ of exceptions auto-resolve.

**Can revenue cycle teams build automations without coding?**
Yes. English-as-Code means plain English instructions are the actual executable code. A revenue cycle director can write business rules and the platform compiles and executes them deterministically. Pre-built healthcare workflows ship ready to deploy — no developers required.
