Member ops, run for you · Health plans and benefits administrators

We run member operations. Same-day, right-plan adjudication.

Antino builds an operations brain — your plans, benefits, and adjudication rules as an executable graph — and runs onboarding, benefits administration, and reimbursement on it. Multi-tenant by design, so each client plan stays isolated and correct.

Outcome: same-day, right-plan adjudication.Proof: HCL Healthcare

Below: the whole pipeline — playable

01 · The problem

Every plan is a snowflake, and every snowflake is manual.

Each employer group has its own benefit design, eligibility quirks, and reimbursement rules. Onboarding a new client means weeks of configuration and a spreadsheet someone hand-checks. Adjudication leans on people who memorized the edge cases. Margins erode with every group you add instead of improving.

02 · How we'd run it

The benefits brain: every claim in, two ways out.

Intelligent decisions. Zero busywork. Every exception, owned.

03 · The pipeline, end to end

The science of shipping, stage by stage.

Nine stages, nine tenant plans, one brain. Drag the agentic-depth dial to see how each stage behaves as the agents absorb more of the routine — and hover any stage for a worked example. Notice what never moves: the plan-exception ruling stays on a human desk at every depth.

Enrol & resolve

Benefits brain · resolve0%
  1. stage 01 · dossier

    Group onboarding

    agenthuman

    A new employer group's benefit design becomes executable, isolated config — not a configuration project.

    • Encodes the plan document into executable benefit rules
    • Cross-checks the encoding against the source design and flags conflicts
    • A benefits analyst signs off the encoded design against the contract.

    Client number ten goes live

    The pattern from running nine enterprise tenants on one platform: the tenth group's design is encoded, conflict-checked and test-adjudicated in days — because the brain has done this nine times and remembers all of it.

    Member enrolment

    agent

    Members are onboarded against their group's own rules — eligibility windows, dependents, waiting periods.

    • Validates enrolment data against the group's plan rules
    • Catches configuration and eligibility errors before they reach a claim

    The error caught at enrolment, not at the claim

    A dependent added outside the group's window is flagged on day one — instead of surfacing eight months later as a denied claim and an angry call.

    Forms re-keyed into three systemsEnrolled once, correct everywhere

  3. stage 03 · dossier

    Claim intake

    agent

    An invoice or provider claim arrives and is parsed: provider, procedure, date, amount, member.

    • Reads invoices and bills from any format into structured claims
    • Matches provider and procedure codes to the network and tariff

    09:14, a physiotherapy invoice

    A member photographs a ₹3,200 invoice in the app. Seconds later it's a structured claim — provider, procedure, amount — with no data-entry desk in between.

    An email inbox and a data-entry queueA receipt photo becomes structured data

  4. stage 04 · dossier

    Plan resolution

    agent

    The single load-bearing step: which tenant, which design version, which rules. Isolation is the data model, not a policy.

    • Resolves the member to exactly one plan design and version
    • Loads that tenant's rules in a sealed context — no cross-tenant leakage possible

    Group K's world, and only group K's

    Physio at 80%, cap ₹25,000, no prior-auth under ₹5,000 — loaded as executable config. Group J's rules cannot leak in, because tenant isolation is structural, not procedural.

    Process discipline and hopeThe wrong plan structurally cannot fire

Adjudicate & pay

Benefits brain · decide & learn0%
  1. stage 05 · dossier

    Eligibility & benefit calculation

    agent

    Coverage, co-pay, caps and utilization are computed against the resolved plan, with the clause attached.

    • Computes the eligible amount: covered rate, deductible, remaining cap
    • Attaches the exact plan clause that authorizes the result

    ₹2,560 eligible — and here's the clause

    80% of ₹3,200, member at 40% of her annual cap, no exclusion triggered — and the clause number rides along with the approval, so nobody has to take the system's word for it.

    Whoever memorized the edge casesCovered rate and cap, computed and cited

  2. stage 06 · dossier

    Duplicate & fraud screen

    agenthuman

    Duplicates, unbundling and anomaly patterns are screened across the tenant's full history.

    • Screens for duplicate submissions and split billing
    • Flags utilization anomalies against the member's and provider's history
    • Flagged providers are reviewed by ops before any network action.

    The same invoice, twice, ten days apart

    A resubmitted bill with a new date is matched to the paid original by provider, amount and procedure — caught at intake instead of at the year-end audit.

    Spot checks when time allowsEvery claim screened, every time

  3. stage 07 · dossier

    Adjudication

    agent

    Clean claims adjudicate straight through against the right plan. Anything ambiguous refuses to guess.

    • Executes adjudication rules with the full decision trace logged
    • Detects ambiguity — codes straddling exclusions — and routes instead of guessing

    The brain that won't guess on benefits

    A procedure code straddles an exclusion in group M's design. The brain doesn't pick a reading — it packages both plausible interpretations with the policy reference and routes the case out.

    A judgment call per snowflake planRules decide; ambiguity routes out

  4. stage 08 · dossier

    Plan-exception ruling

    agenthuman owns

    Ambiguous benefits, appeals and grievances are ruled on by a named ops owner — and the ruling is remembered.

    • Prepares the case file: member history, plan clause, the ambiguity highlighted, both readings
    • The benefits ops owner decides. The brain records the ruling as precedent.

    Decided once, remembered for every tenant

    The ops owner rules on the straddling code in minutes because the case arrived built. Next quarter, the same ambiguity doesn't escalate — the ruling became a rule.

    Escalations lost in a shared inboxA named owner, both readings laid out

  5. stage 09 · dossier

    Payment run

    agent

    Approved claims queue for the payment cycle; the member sees invoice, covered rate and remaining cap.

    • Queues payment on cycle with the full audit trail attached
    • Shows the member the calculation before they think to ask

    The call-centre question, pre-answered

    Invoice ₹3,200, covered at 80%, ₹2,560 paid, cap remaining shown. The question that used to be a queue is answered in the app before it's asked.

    "Why this amount?" call queuesThe member sees the maths first

Depth bars are illustrative of a mature benefits book. The plan-exception ruling is a permanent human gate — the brain prepares the case; it never decides the ambiguous ones.

04 · One brain, two engines

How the function runs on top of the brain.

Revenue OS

Onboard and configure

We stand up new client plans on the operations brain. Benefit designs get encoded as executable config, enrollment runs itself, and a new employer group goes live in a fraction of the usual setup time.

  • Multi-tenant plan setup: each client's benefits isolated and machine-readable
  • Member onboarding and enrollment automated against the plan's own rules
  • New-group go-live measured in days, not multi-week configuration projects
  • Configuration errors caught before they reach a member or a claim

Delivery OS

Administer and reimburse

We run benefits administration and reimbursement on the live operations brain. Clean claims adjudicate straight through against the right plan; anything ambiguous routes to a human with the policy reference in hand.

  • Benefits administration run against the correct tenant's plan, every time
  • Reimbursement and claim adjudication automated with the policy cited
  • Member and provider questions answered from the plan, not from tribal memory
  • Edge-case and appeal cases escalated to a named owner with full context
