What gets published

Maya Chen

Twelve years inside healthcare RCM. Building the autonomous billing copilot that the next generation of revenue teams wish existed.

Startup opportunities

Three ideas grounded in the advantage

Idea

Chosen

Denial Copilot

An AI assistant that drafts the appeal narrative the moment a denial code lands, grounded in payer-specific precedent.

Who
Billing leads at 50 to 1,000-bed hospital systems
Revenue
Per-seat SaaS, $89 / seat / month, plus a denial-recovery upside fee
Why this fits
Maya knows precisely which appeals work for which codes at which payers. The product is her brain, productized.

Idea

Payer Intelligence

Comparative payer-behavior dashboard so revenue teams know which contracts are quietly underpaying.

Who
Revenue cycle directors at health systems
Revenue
Tier SaaS, $1,500 to $10,000 / month based on volume
Why this fits
Maya already builds versions of this in spreadsheets. The work is the product.

Idea

RCM Operator Academy

A structured curriculum that turns mid-career billing operators into RCM directors.

Who
Mid-career billing operators at hospital systems
Revenue
Cohort program, $4,800 / seat, four cohorts a year
Why this fits
Lower-margin, but lowest risk and fastest to revenue.

Choose one path

The decision that locks the rest of the journey

Maya picks

Denial Copilot

From this point forward, every step builds on this single choice. Validation, intellectual property, product, growth, capital. The user makes decisions; the AI does the work in between.

06

Validate and protect

Market check + intellectual property plan

Validation

  • Market size

    US hospital billing AR is roughly $200B annually. Denials cost the industry $20B in re-work. Even 1% capture is a meaningful business.

  • Buyer urgency

    Revenue cycle directors are evaluated quarterly on first-pass denial rate. They are paid to fix this. Budget exists.

  • Real risks

    Incumbent EHR vendors will copy the feature. Defensibility comes from payer-specific precedent data Maya can build a moat around.

Intellectual property plan

  • Defensibility

    The asset is the payer-specific appeal-precedent dataset. Maya's network is the moat for collecting it; speed of collection is the moat for keeping it.

  • Prior art search

    Three patents in adjacent denial-prediction space. None overlap with the appeal-narrative-generation method Maya is filing on.

  • Filing plan

    Provisional within 30 days. Full utility filing within 12 months. Trademark on Denial Copilot now.

07

Build a product

Ship-ready scope

  • Landing page

    denialcopilot.com. Headline: 'Draft the appeal the moment the denial lands.' One screenshot, one CTA, one proof line.

  • Product backlog

    Auth, denial-code intake, payer-precedent retrieval, appeal-draft generation, copy-to-clipboard, audit log. Six items, eight weeks.

  • Launch checklist

    Three pilot hospital systems from Maya's network, $0 contract, full data-share for the precedent dataset.

08

Launch and grow

Distribution + content + CAC

  • Distribution

    Direct outbound to RCM directors via Maya's existing network. Followed by case studies and a quarterly RCM operator webinar.

  • Content

    One newsletter a week breaking down a real payer denial pattern. Demonstrates the product without requiring it.

  • CAC and payback

    Estimated CAC $4,200 per seat. Payback at four months. Six-figure ACV after the third seat per system.

09

Prepare for capital

Raise-ready, not raise-blocked

  • Round size

    $1.5M pre-seed for a 12-month runway. Small team, high-conviction angels, two healthcare-savvy funds, no marquee logo needed.

  • Investor matches

    Six healthcare-domain angels and two seed funds whose theses match denial automation specifically.

  • Pitch outline

    Maya's twelve years inside the workflow + the specific payer-precedent moat + early letters of intent from three pilot systems.
