Its digital platform works with any healthcare system and makes the application process seamless for patients and hospital administrators alike. After its recent Series A fundraise, the company plans to invest further in its AI and machine learning technology to expand its underwriting capabilities across financial, medical and alternative data sets, making CNPL a reality for 100% of patients.
