    Claimable Uses AI to Help Patients Beat Insurance Denials and Reclaim Their Healthcare

    The U.S. healthcare system is fraught with challenges, particularly for patients denied access to essential treatments. In a landscape where 850 million claims are denied annually, leaving 1 in 5 Americans grappling with devastating delays, financial strain, and worsened health outcomes, Claimable is emerging as a beacon of hope. By leveraging advanced AI technology, Claimable is redefining how patients challenge unjust insurance denials and reclaim control over their care.

    The idea for Claimable emerged when co-founder and CEO Warris Bokhari, a physician-executive with experience at Amazon, Apple, and Anthem (now Elevance Health), witnessed the devastating effects of claim denials firsthand. Having been raised by two disabled parents and having practiced medicine in the UK—where patients are never denied care—Bokhari deeply understood the importance of accessible healthcare. After working in the insurance industry, he saw that claim denial was a core issue in American healthcare, one that often goes unchallenged because the appeals process is too complex and exhausting for most patients.

    “It’s no wonder why people give up,” Bokhari said. “If you’re a rational person, you would say this model was not fit for purpose.” This realization fueled the creation of Claimable—an AI-powered platform designed to fight back against unjust denials and simplify the appeals process for patients.

    Bokhari teamed up with co-founders Alicia and Zach, who share his passion for fixing real problems in healthcare. Zach, driven by his experience improving care for veterans at the VA, believes access to care is as critical as the care itself. Alicia, the child of a nurse, became relentlessly curious about reimagining healthcare experiences and fixing them from the ground up. Together, they created Claimable to level the playing field, giving patients a voice in a system that too often drowns them out.
