Vendor Spotlight - Anthuria: AI That Actually Understands Skilled Nursing
Anthuria says: "We're building AI that actually understands skilled nursing. Our platform reads hospital discharge paperwork and daily progress notes to find missed PDPM opportunities, save staff time, and reduce compliance risk. We turn documentation you already have into revenue you're not capturing."
The Shmooze: Another AI company promising to fix healthcare? Ok sure. But here's what caught our attention: Anthuria is actually deployed in 100+ facilities right now, not just running pilots. They integrate directly with PointClickCare and several referral vendors, and they claim 20x average ROI. That sounds like marketing nonsense until you see what they do:
Patient View
Transforms 20-100 pages of hospital discharge paperwork into structured ICD-10 recommendations in minutes. One MDS coordinator said: "Cuts time in half. This is a great tool, helps me find things that help me think." Every recommendation links directly to source documentation in PCC for audit defense.
Pulse
Monitors daily progress notes and helps surface IPA opportunities like IV fluids, insulin changes, fever, condition changes. A MDS director spent "Monday, Tuesday, and today going through notes looking for those opportunities manually". Pulse eliminates that. As their MDS coordinator put it: "Every time I fact-checked and went back into those notes, they were spot on."
MDS Discover
Surfaces missed coding opportunities during assessments. Anthuria analyzed 2,889 patients across their customer base and found an average of $13,268 in monthly opportunities per facility. 55% of patients had at least one missed opportunity.
The Honest Assessment
Will Anthuria solve all your problems? No. But will it help your overworked MDS coordinator find reimbursement opportunities buried in documentation? Apparently yes. As one 25-year industry veteran put it, "I haven't found anything in here that I can't verify. It's trustworthy. It brings it up. It takes you right to it. This is the closest to thinking I've ever seen."
They're backed by a healthcare family office with deep post-acute care knowledge - not random tech bros who discovered SNFs last week. They understand PDPM, MDS workflows, and surveyor relationships.
Bottom Line
If your building staff are drowning in paperwork and you suspect money is falling through the cracks, Anthuria might be worth a demo. At a minimum, they're solving real problems with measurable ROI, not selling vague "AI transformation."
Anthuria responds: "We're giving your team superpowers. We're finding thousands a month per facility in reimbursement opportunities and our customers validate the accuracy. But we're just getting started. Next up: quality measure tracking, compliance audits, and expanding beyond Medicare to Medicaid PDPM. Ultimately we will be the air traffic controller coordinating the workflows to manage seniors across hospital (acute), post-acute, and homecare."
