Mumbai: In a strategic move to combat financial fraud in healthcare reimbursements, MediBuddy has launched a state-of-the-art fraud detection system named ‘Sherlock’. This system harnesses the power of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and data analytics to detect and prevent fraudulent activities in real-time.
Sherlock is equipped with sophisticated AI and ML algorithms that adapt and evolve to recognize emerging fraud patterns. By monitoring user behavior and identifying anomalies, the system provides instant alerts and analyses, addressing issues such as claim duplication, document tampering, pricing discrepancies, and compliance lapses. This automation reduces the reliance on manual reviews, significantly saving time and operational costs.
Satish Kannan, Co-founder and CEO of MediBuddy, said, “Fraud in healthcare reimbursement claims threatens the system’s integrity. With Sherlock, we’re equipping our partners and users with a powerful tool to detect and prevent fraud, ensuring a more efficient and transparent claims process. Our solution identifies potential risks early, fostering trust, reducing costs, and protecting our reputation.”
Sherlock’s capabilities are projected to achieve up to 20 per cent in cost savings. This includes a 10 per cent reduction in fraud through the cashless network and an additional 10 per cent through Sherlock’s advanced fraud detection features. By minimising fraudulent activities, the AI driven system can enhance the reimbursement process but also strengthens the overall security and efficiency of the healthcare claims system, according to MediBuddy.
