Amperos Health Raises $16M in Series A Funding

Apr 23, 2026 | By Startuprise io

Amperos Health, a NYC-based developer of an insurance revenue recovery platform that uses AI to handle denials end-to-end, has raised $16 million in a Series A funding round led by Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from Uncork Capital and Neo. The company plans to use the funds to grow its operations and continue developing its products.

The funding comes as Amperos launches the industry’s first AI-native solution for denial management and revenue recovery. Its AI agents automate the full process of handling denied claims and collections, while a team of experts supports more complex cases and hard-to-recover claims.

The platform also provides insights to help healthcare providers improve billing and reduce future claim denials. So far, Amperos has supported over 3,000 clinical locations across all 50 states, helping recover nearly $700 million in revenue each year from more than 500,000 claims.

Healthcare claim denials are increasing with about 12% of claims denied in 2024 leading to roughly $262 billion in lost revenue for providers. Recovering these claims costs over $26 billion each-year even though about 70% are eventually paid. At the same time many revenue cycle teams are understaffed and administrative roles face high turnover making the problem harder to manage.

Amperos addresses this challenge with a solution that fills gaps in the revenue cycle workforce while helping recover more denied revenue. Its product handles the full process, including follow-ups with insurers, submitting corrected claims and medical records, and managing appeals.

While most tools only automate parts of denial management, such as calls or appeal letters, Amperos automates the entire process from start to finish. It uses advanced AI across voice and system workflows to handle collections tasks and help providers recover more revenue at a lower cost.

"Our partnership with Amperos has helped ease the workload that comes with recovering unpaid claims and insurance collections tremendously," said Valerie DeCaro, Vice President of Revenue Cycle Management at DOCS Dermatology. "By helping my team work through time-consuming tasks faster and focus on more complex needs, we've been able to recover 24% more claims without increasing headcount. DOCS Dermatology is a provider-first organization, and Amperos Health ensures that our providers are properly compensated for the care they give."

"Denials are one of healthcare's fastest-growing pain points: a growing portion of claims denied, hundreds of billions in lost revenue, and RCM teams that are chronically understaffed. It's a broken process ripe for AI transformation," said Sofia Guerra, Partner at Bessemer Venture Partners. "What sets Amperos apart is that they're the first truly agentic AI platform we've seen to automate this workflow end-to-end, from portal follow-ups and calls to corrected claims and appeals, with no handoffs and no gaps. We're excited to see Amperos continue to grow its impact for customers. The results speak for themselves: 22% more recovered per claim at up to 50% lower cost, creating real financial relief for providers who are already operating on razor-thin margins."

"Complexity in healthcare revenue cycle management (RCM) should not be the norm, and that's why our mission at Amperos is to streamline the denial and collections process so providers can focus on what matters most – operating their practices and serving their patients," said Michal Miernowski, CEO and Co-Founder of Amperos Health. "I'm thrilled to announce our most recent funding round, which will be critical as Amperos accelerates its growth to serve more providers, expands its analytics capabilities, and launches new agentic capabilities in other RCM workflows."
