Helping Patients Access the Care They Need
Because we configure our platform to each client’s needs, the use-case for each client can vary. Some other examples of our use-cases include:

01
Company Background
Paxos was founded on a personal mission. Two of its co-founders, Alex and Malcolm, were each denied coverage for medically necessary, but expensive, surgeries. Despite multiple appeals from their providers, insurers refused to budge. Left with few options, they researched, strategized, and fought back themselves, and won. Along the way, they uncovered just how stacked the system was against patients who lacked the time, expertise, or stamina to push back. Their experience inspired Paxos: a company built to help others navigate that same uphill battle, with more support, better tools, and a dramatically higher chance of success.
02
The Challenge
Every year, millions of patients are denied insurance coverage for treatments they need—treatments that are often backed by sound clinical evidence but blocked due to technicalities, coding errors, or incomplete documentation. While providers may attempt to appeal, they have limited resources, and cannot continue to fight insurers all day. In fact:
Fewer than 1% of denied patients file their own appeal, yet 40% of appeals are successful when patients do push forward.1
That gap represented a huge opportunity. Patients needed a clear, credible way to take matters into their own hands, especially when their health and finances were on the line.
03
Why Patients Chose Paxos
Unlike large vendors offering generic, automated tools, Paxos took a hands-on approach:
Patients worked directly with real reimbursement experts, not call centers
Each appeal was custom-built, anchored to payer policies and clinical data
Paxos helped patients not only write their appeals, but also submit them to the right contacts, with the right forms and documentation
Pricing was higher than off-the-shelf template services, patients got a premium, white-glove experience and meaningful results.
This combination of strategy, service, and credibility led patients to choose Paxos when it mattered most.
