A Helix Company
Sherpa is the operating layer between health systems, public payers, and the people they serve — unifying compliance, payments, and member financial engagement on infrastructure built for the way Medicaid actually works today.
The problem
Compliance debt accumulates. Payment friction quietly drives churn. Members disengage long before anyone notices. Three different problems — one missing layer.
Eligibility rules, reporting obligations, and program integrity requirements are evolving faster than the systems built to handle them. The cost of falling behind shows up as denied claims, audit exposure, and member loss.
Routing money between payers, providers, members, and partners still depends on workflows that move at the speed of paper. Friction at the financial edge is friction at the care edge.
Eligibility is a member's lifeline to care — and the moment of greatest disengagement. The financial touchpoint is the most underused channel in Medicaid retention.
The platform
Sherpa is designed to integrate with the systems health plans, FQHCs, and providers already run — not to replace them. Deeper capability detail is available to partners in the partner portal →
