About Kairos Health
Kairos Health, previously known as Shunya Health, provides an AI-native revenue cycle management layer for medical practices and other healthcare providers. Its stated scope includes prior authorization, full-service revenue operations, detection of financial leakage, payer payments, procurement and contract management.
The company describes a split between Kairos Agents, which gather records, run checks, prepare submissions and track responses, and Kairos Specialists, who handle exceptions, review evidence and keep named ownership of active cases. The practice keeps all clinical decisions and approvals. Kairos says it connects with more than a dozen EHR systems, including athenahealth, NextGen, ModMed, eClinicalWorks and Tebra, as well as clearinghouses and prior authorization platforms. The company states it maintains HIPAA compliance, signs a BAA and holds SOC 2 Type II certification.
Onboarding is described in three stages: a baseline agreement, workflow validation, and a review and expansion step. A practice can start with one workflow or the full revenue cycle.
