Develop Health
Also known as: develophealth.ai
Agentic clearinghouse for medication access: predicts coverage at prescription, then autonomously runs the PA lifecycle from evidence extraction through submission (ePA, AI fax, AI phone), follow up, and appeal resubmission; 400K+ patients monthly.
Develop Health is building healthcare's agentic clearinghouse, starting with medication access under the pharmacy benefit. Its prescription AI predicts plan specific medication coverage, cost, and requirements at the point of prescription, then automates the full prior authorization lifecycle: auto detecting PA need, finding the correct form, auto filling it with LLM extracted clinical evidence from the EHR, attaching citations, submitting electronically with AI fax and phone fallback for 99%+ payer coverage, following up on pending requests, and on denial analyzing the reason, generating an appeal letter from brand approved guidelines, and resubmitting. The provider's role is one approval tap in their existing EHR task queue. Processing prior authorizations for 400,000+ patients per month across GLP-1s, specialty biologics, and maintenance drugs, with most approvals cycling in under 24 hours. $14.3M raised as of August 2025.
