Agentic RCM · The Plutus Health Operating Model

25 AI Agents. Working your Revenue Cycle, End-to-End.

Plutus Health doesn’t layer AI on top of traditional RCM. OlympusAI is built as an agentic revenue cycle operating system in which specialized AI agents execute workflows across eligibility, coding, claims, denials, A/R, and collections in real time.

Every workflow operates against defined SLAs, confidence thresholds, payer logic, and measurable KPIs, with 60% Agentic AI and 40% specialist judgment.

What is Agentic RCM?

Three Properties Define an Agent. All 25 of Ours Have Them

The industry uses "agentic" to mean many things. We use it to mean three specific properties, and we hold our agents to all three before they go to production. If an agent doesn't pass these tests, we don't ship it

01

Autonomous workflow execution

  • Each agent owns a specific RCM workflow end-to-end, not a single task.
  • The Eligibility Agent doesn't just check a payer; it runs the full eligibility workflow, including secondary discovery, benefits parsing, and exception escalation.
  • Agents complete the work without prompting or supervision under normal conditions.
02

Confidence-gated human-in-loop

  • Every agent has measurable confidence thresholds.
  • Above threshold, the agent acts. At the threshold, it suggests and a specialist confirms.
  • Below threshold, it escalates with full context.
  • Thresholds are calibrated continuously against actual production outcomes, not set once and forgotten. This is why our coding agent ships at 99.2%+ accuracy and our clean-claim agent ships at 97%+.
03

KPI-bound to commercial outcomes

  • Each agent has a single measurable KPI tied to the commercial model.
  • Eligibility Agent → eligibility-related denial rate < 1%. Coding Agent → accuracy > 99.2%.
  • Cash Flow Forecasting Agent → forecast accuracy ±3% MoM.
  • KPIs report into the weekly client CFO pack. If an agent's KPI degrades, we fix the agent, not the client.
The 25 Agents, Mapped to Workflow

Every Stage of the Revenue Cycle. One or More Agents on Each.
