Annexus Launches Platform to Streamline Patient Financial Assistance

CRANBERRY TOWNSHIP, Pa., Nov. 10, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Annexus Health, a healthcare technology company founded in 2017, has launched the Annexus Platform, a connected, end-to-end solution designed to help healthcare providers identify, secure, and manage patient financial assistance throughout treatment. Built on the AssistPoint software, the platform uses artificial intelligence and automation to streamline the process, enabling providers to improve reimbursement performance and enhance patient care.

The Annexus Platform connects patient assessment and enrollment, claims management, and ongoing funding management. It supports three core workflows: initial patient assessment, claims management, and ongoing patient management. By integrating these workflows, the platform helps providers identify assistance earlier, reduce administrative work, and maintain funding throughout treatment. This can lead to faster treatment starts and reduced financial toxicity, while improving reimbursement performance for providers.

The Annexus Platform addresses the issue of financial toxicity, which can put needed treatment out of reach, especially in specialty care. Even with health insurance, patients with cancer can face out-of-pocket costs that disrupt access to care. Financial assistance can help, but provider teams often manage program requirements, applications, claims, and renewals through a patchwork of spreadsheets, manual processes, and separate program portals. This fragmented administrative work leaves less time to help patients understand their options and secure support before costs become a barrier to care.

Annexus Health's platform brings treatment orders, assistance applications, claims, and funding information together across provider systems, including electronic health record, practice management, billing, infusion, and pharmacy systems. This connection supports three core workflows:

1. Initial Patient Assessment: Automatically screens every treatment order and uses AI to help match patients with thousands of financial assistance opportunities, including all manufacturer co-pay programs and charitable foundation programs across high-cost specialty therapeutics. The platform advances likely matches through an organized enrollment processing workflow, helping teams manage applications and track status and outcomes.

2. Claims Management: Uses automation and AI-supported matching to review medical benefit claims from provider systems and identify those that may qualify for reimbursement through assistance programs. The platform then helps teams prepare, submit, track, and resolve eligible claims, with final documentation returned to the provider's billing system.

3. Ongoing Patient Management: Monitors assistance throughout treatment, including award balances and expiration dates. It alerts teams when funds run low, keeps assistance information accurate through reconciliation, maintains a watchlist for patients awaiting available funding, and supports re-enrollment.

For providers, these workflows help teams identify assistance earlier, reduce administrative work, and maintain funding throughout treatment while helping improve financial assistance collections and reimbursement performance.

Annexus Health has helped secure more than $11 billion in financial assistance for more than 400,000 patients. Its provider network spans more than 735 healthcare organizations, 32,000 sites of care, and 124,000 treating providers. Measured results include:

- A 5.2-day reduction in time to treatment, on average. - A 75% increase in financial assistance collections, on average. - A 55% lower cost per dollar collected, on average. - A 78% reduction in days to payment on digitally integrated claims, from 19.5 days to 4.3 days.
