About Us

Prior authorization should help patients get the care they need faster. But manual processes and administrative paperwork overburden teams and slow down patient access. We built Ethermed to address that need.

Our intelligent AI platform is built for the unique needs of prior authorization:

Providers

improve efficiency with fewer denials

Payers

achieve faster turnaround without sacrificing decision quality

Patients

get answers from doctors they trust

VALUES

Our Core Values

Deep Expertise

Every prior authorization request is subject to detailed payer policies, clinical information, and specialty-specific requirements. Ethermed helps you manage that complexity with a deep understanding of payer policy & workflows. Every decision reflects current payer requirements and evidence-based clinical criteria across all medical and pharmacy specialties.

Intelligent Automation

Ethermed isn’t just another generic AI assistant. Every part of our process exists to remove a specific point of friction — a missed document, a delayed submission, a decision without clear justification. Our proprietary MATCH technology delivers reliable decisions faster, without compromising quality or compliance.

Human-Centered Execution

Our prior authorization AI doesn’t take people out of the process. It reduces the administrative paperwork clogging their inbox, so team members can focus where their expertise matters most.

Who we are

‍Founded in 2021, Ethermed started with a mission: What if we could use AI to solve prior authorizations and remove the barriers between payers and providers?

Ethermed’s unique SaaS platform uses AI to automatically scan clinical and non-clinical data, pre-fill, and submit prior authorizations—without human involvement. By stitching together siloed data and streamlining interactions between historically adversarial players, we’re addressing a key administrative burden while enabling better coordination of public health interventions across the full spectrum of care and Social Determinants of Health (SDOH).

Today, Ethermed is eliminating the growing volume of administrative overhead, freeing UM teams to focus on patient care and revenue priorities. We’re here to transform healthcare workflows so that providers and payers can concentrate on what truly matters—improving outcomes for patients.
