# Fuse

> Fuse (fuseinsight.com) is a healthcare revenue-cycle automation platform for medical practices. It automates digital patient intake, CPT-level insurance eligibility and benefits verification (via payer portals, direct payer phone calls, and adjudicated claims data), patient cost estimates, patient billing and collections, claims submission, and revenue analytics. Fuse is HIPAA compliant and SOC 2 Type II certified, integrates with most EMR/EHR systems without new software (including SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Healthie, Jane, AthenaOne, DrChrono, AdvancedMD, Tebra, and NextGen), and serves specialties including behavioral health, physical therapy, neurology, pain management, and sleep medicine.

Fuse is built by Fuse Insight (founded by Sho Sugihara). It is not affiliated with Fusebill, Fuse Oncology, or HealthFuse.
