Anterior, a clinician-led artificial intelligence platform focused on healthcare administration, has secured $40 million in new funding, bringing total capital raised to $64 million. The oversubscribed round included continued backing from NEA and Sequoia Capital, alongside new investors FPV and Kinnevik.
Led by CEO Dr. Abdel Mahmoud, the company develops AI systems designed to automate prior authorizations and other administrative processes that delay patient care. Anterior reports its platform can automate up to 90% of this work while maintaining clinician oversight through its “Forward Deployed Clinician” model, which embeds medical experts within partner organizations. The platform currently supports health plans covering more than 50 million people and has demonstrated high clinical accuracy and faster review cycles. The new funding will support scaling operations, expanding integrations, and deepening market adoption.
