Latitude Health Launches AI-Native Utilization Management Solution

What You Should Know: 

– Latitude Health, a San Francisco, CA-based company is emerging out of stealth with the launch of its AI-driven utilization management designed to eliminate inefficiencies, reduce costs, and improve patient outcomes. 

– Backed by  Redesign Health, Latitude Health’s commitment to improving healthcare is deeply rooted in the personal experiences of its industry veteran co-founders, Chuck Feerick and Guru Nadiger. 

AI-Powered UM Designed with Healthcare Experts

Utilization management is a critical process in healthcare that involves evaluating the necessity and appropriateness of medical services. However, traditional UM systems are often inefficient, leading to delays in care, frustrated providers, and increased costs. Feerick witnessed firsthand the tragic consequences of inefficient UM processes, while Nadiger has spent decades building and improving healthcare technology solutions. 

“This wasn’t just a system failure—it was a human tragedy,” said Chuck Feerick, Co-Founder and CEO. “It exposed the devastating impact of behind-the-scenes decisions made with incomplete information. I knew this had to be fixed.”

Working alongside more than 50 UM professionals—including intake teams, nurses, and medical directors, Latitude Health is addressing these challenges with its AI-native platform. The company’s technology automates tasks, provides real-time insights, and empowers UM teams to make faster, more informed decisions. The company is also guided by a team of esteemed advisors, including Heads of UM, Chief Medical Officers, and AI experts, ensuring its solutions are built with the highest level of expertise and industry insight.

Market Adoption

Latitude Health is already making an impact, partnering with national organizations serving over 2 million members, with several additional opportunities in its pipeline.

“At Latitude, we believe technology should amplify the people who deliver care, not stand in their way,” said Guru Nadiger, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer. “That’s why everything we build is grounded in a core belief: better tools lead to better decisions, and better decisions save lives.”
