Beacon Health (YC W26) is a San Francisco company building "AI employees" for primary care — autonomous agents that operate directly inside electronic health record systems the same way a human staff member does. Rather than integrating through an EHR vendor API, Beacon records a practice's existing workflow in the EHR (navigation, clicks, data entry) and converts that recording into a reusable, deployable agent that runs at scale across the whole patient panel. The agents automate value-based-care back-office work: preventative and quality gap closure, pre-charting, prior authorizations, referrals, transition-of-care management, and HCC risk-adjustment coding. Beacon advertises coverage of AthenaHealth, Epic, Cerner, eClinicalWorks, MEDITECH, NextGen, Veradigm Allscripts and MEDENT, plus payer portals and other web applications. Founded in 2025 by Mark Pothen (CEO) and Obinna Akahara (CTO), the company operates as a HIPAA Business Associate under a BAA with each covered entity, and publishes a trust center at trust.beaconhealth.ai carrying a 56-control monitored control set, a named eight-vendor subprocessor list, and SOC 2 and HIPAA frameworks both declared in progress with no completed attestation. As of this profile Beacon Health publishes no public developer API, developer portal, API documentation, SDKs, or OpenAPI definition — the product is delivered as a managed agent workforce, not as a self-serve API.
