Our mission

Nobody negotiates from memory.

Behind every payer agreement is a hospital collecting on terms somebody read once, years ago. Basalt builds the AI that reads the paper properly and keeps every figure beside the page it came from, so the people at the table are arguing from evidence.

Why we exist

The contract is the asset. It reads like a filing cabinet.

Managed care teams run some of the largest revenue decisions in a health system out of a spreadsheet that one person built by hand and nobody can source. The agreements underneath it hold every rate the hospital collects on, and they go unread from one cycle to the next because reading them properly takes months nobody has.

We build with the analysts, not around them. Basalt surfaces the evidence and cites every figure to its page; the person who signs the deal makes the call.

Basalt Health builds two products: Basalt Admissions, used by post-acute providers, and Basalt Contracts, which reads executed payer agreements. Same team and the same standard of evidence, running in separate tenancies with no shared data between them.

The bedrock of the deal

The executed agreement is the ground floor.

Every dollar a health system collects from a commercial payer rests on it. Every rate, every escalator, every termination right begins there. We believe a number that big deserves to rest on something solid: the signed page, kept in plain view.

Grounded

We do not guess. Every figure traces back to a line in the executed document.

Accountable

Numbers you will put in front of a payer under your own name, with the page attached.

Human

Basalt assembles the evidence. A person always decides what to do with it.

Principles

How we build

01

Evidence, never opinion

Nothing is surfaced without a citation to the executed document. When a term is absent, we say so from a full read and record it as confirmed absent.

02

The analyst decides

Basalt prepares the case. A person always makes the call, with the source line on screen beside the figure.

03

Checked before it ships

Roughly 35 independent checks gate every deploy, and every deploy is re-verified against the remote build. We publish the checks and the defect behind each one.

Where to start

See it on the contract you argue with most.

Counted from a live reference deployment at a 60+ hospital multi-state system, proven at four facilities on a repeatable pipeline. Most systems start with one payer and one negotiation cycle.

Careers

We are a small team with an unusually direct line between our work and a hospital collecting what it actually agreed to.
