About Nirvana
Nirvana is on a mission to bring pay transparency to healthcare. Our Coverage API takes health insurance information and outputs a) whether someone is covered for care and b) how much that procedure is. By focusing on Coverage, Nirvana’s utilization has grown over 300% in the past 12 months alone in mental health, with early growth in other specialties, and on-track to support 30% of the mental health market by EOY.As we continue to scale as a company, we are focusing on integrating our Coverage API directly into the existing systems our customers utilize today (known as Electronic Health Records, or "EHRs").
These integrations will lead to improved eligibility verification workflows for our customers, and ultimately provide patients with the pay transparency they need to seek care with confidence.
