Transforming Healthcare Administration Through Innovation

At Assured, we're revolutionizing how healthcare practices manage their administrative operations. Born from firsthand experience in the industry, we combine cutting-edge software with deep domain expertise to address the complex challenges of provider network management.

Our Mission

Our mission is to eliminate the administrative healthcare burdens. By merging AI with human expertise, we transform thousands of hours of paperwork into a streamlined, efficient process—allowing healthcare professionals to focus on what truly matters: patient care.

Our Story

Assured was born from the challenges we encountered while building and scaling Dawn Health, a virtual sleep clinic. As founders, Rahul Shivkumar and Varun Krishnamurthy,  we experienced firsthand the inefficiencies of provider network management. Instead of accepting the status quo, we seized the opportunity to create something better.

Our engineering backgrounds, combined with our healthcare entrepreneurship experience, gave us a unique perspective. We realized that by leveraging advanced technologies like AI for primary source verification and automated form processing, we could dramatically enhance the experience for healthcare practices of all sizes.
