Undeniably better.

Protego empowers billing teams with AI-driven tools to prevent and appeal denied medical claims.
Get in touch

Protego acts as an extension of your billing team, suggesting changes/edits to claims in real time that improve the accuracy of claim submissions. By cross-referencing medical claims against policies and coding initiatives, our AI-powered tool drastically reduces preventable denials. Given that many denials are deemed inevitable, our proprietary technology can also research and draft policy-based appeals up to 91% faster.

Stop fighting machines with humans!

Healthcare providers spend over $20 billion/year pursuing denied and delayed insurance claims, and lose over $750 billion to claims that are ultimately denied.


Health plans use technology to adjudicate and deny claims, while providers have relied on human capital alone to prevent and address denials... until now.

Meet Protego Health - the AI-powered denial protection solution. Protego references previously unconnected databases like payor policies and coding guidelines, and analyzes them against claims pre-submission to prevent denials.  When claims are improperly denied, Protego empowers billing teams to generate complex, claim-level appeals 91% faster.

“The answer was spot on. I am amazed!!! The answer I received was so great because it indicated that the visual field would be covered, which would send a billing representative in the right direction for a valid diagnosis/covered indication.”

“In under 30 seconds, I had the answer to my question, and was able to send the specific clause that indicated the need for a prior auth to my billing manager so she could call back and obtain the (needed) documentation.”
