Founder's note · Full disclosure

Full disclosure: I’m both the operator and the builder here. I run Crown Valley Imaging (15 years as CEO) and I built this platform through Veredge. That isn’t a bug in this case study — it’s why it exists. I had the problem first, built the fix for my own business, and ran it on my own books for 123 days. Every number below is from that ledger. A reproducible pipeline generates the report; anyone can audit the math. Third-party testimonials will come as we license this to other practices. For now, this is an operator being honest about where the proof came from.

— Sami, founder of Veredge & CEO of Crown Valley Imaging
The Problem

Aging patient balances. Front-desk staff chasing manually. Inconsistent follow-up. Legacy billing platform plateauing at ~53% of patient responsibility collected at 90 days — roughly the industry average per HFMA MAP Keys. The fastest-growing segment of healthcare AR, still being chased by hand.

What We Built

AI-assisted patient-billing operating system with 12 observable capabilities: approval-gated settlement campaigns, inbound SMS intent classification, autonomous safe-intent replies, dispute manager, risk scoring + worklist prioritization, payment prediction, send-time optimization, payment-plan negotiator, and a semi-autonomous follow-up agent. Built on Retell AI + Twilio + Stripe + Make.com, with a full operational export pack for reproducible measurement.

Timeline

60 days from concept to production. 123 days of post-launch measurement published.

Results

$535,623 collected in 123 days — +129.4% vs. the legacy platform’s equal-window baseline. $182.62 per paying account (industry top-quartile per HFMA). 75.8% of patient responsibility collected by 90 days vs. 53.1% on legacy (and ~50–60% industry median). Cost to collect: 1.39% — below HFMA’s 2–3% best-practice benchmark. Full methodology, sources, and honest caveats in the deep-dive case study.

Why It Matters

Most patient balances never get chased well because the economics of manual phone-and-mail don’t work. The platform collapses the operating cost to ~1.4% of collections while hitting top-quartile industry KPIs — on a live patient panel, measured over 123 days, with every number reproducible from raw exports.

$3M aerospace agency moved off spreadsheets in 24 hours.

Engagement type

Narrow-scope Build & Deploy. Not a full Diagnostic.

The Problem

$3M agency running entirely on spreadsheets. Owner spent ~80% of his time managing data instead of clients. Duplicate entry across 3 systems. No central source of truth. Jay couldn’t tell me what he needed in software terms — but he didn’t have to. He walked me through his operation, and I pattern-matched the fix on the spot.

The Scoping Call

An in-person working session, not a product. Jay walked me through his workflow — spreadsheets, duplicate entry across three systems, client data in his head, nothing centralized. I put the pieces together in real time and identified what the business actually needed: not a CRM rollout, not a Salesforce implementation, not off-the-shelf. A fully custom CRM built from scratch for his exact workflow. Scope was set in the conversation.

What We Built

A fully custom CRM, built from scratch for Avva’s specific workflow — no off-the-shelf platform, no SaaS template. Architecture scoped in-person at the facility, data migrated from spreadsheets, workflow automation wired, code walked through with the owner so he could maintain it, then full GCP deployment end-to-end. Team trained before we left.

Timeline

~24 hours of build time — from first line of code to live on GCP. Not wall-clock; compressed work cycles across a working day and a half, with scope self-evident from the scoping session.

Sami drove down for an in-person working session, walked me through the build from the ground up, then handled the GCP deployment himself. What I paid versus what this CRM has done for my operations? Easily tens of thousands of dollars in value for a fraction of that. I thought I needed to hire someone full-time — turns out I just needed a day with Sami. My team can see what I see now. I get my week back.

Why It Matters

The operator’s lens catches in a conversation what a consultant bills weeks of “discovery” for. Jay didn’t walk in with a scope or a brief — he walked me through his operation, and I pattern-matched the fix in real time. Most Build engagements run 4–12 weeks because the first chunk is discovery. We compressed discovery into the meeting itself because I’d lived the same pattern before. That’s the difference between hiring a consultant who needs weeks to understand your business and hiring an operator who’s been the one trapped inside a business running on spreadsheets.

HIPAA-compliant patient intake, fully automated.

The Problem

Paper intake, PDF forms, manual data entry, HIPAA exposure.

What We Built

End-to-end digital intake platform on Firebase + Twilio + AWS SES with Gemini AI summarization.

Timeline

Active in production at imaging center.

Results

Patients arrive with forms pre-completed. Repeat visitors skip redundant fields. Staff data entry eliminated. HIPAA-compliant end to end. Published performance metrics coming Q2 2026.

Why It Matters

Intake is the first 15 minutes of every patient experience. Automating it frees staff for work that requires judgment.
