Musheer Ahmed, PhD

Founder of the AI for PI Community

Dr. Ahmed is the CEO and Founder of Codoxo. He founded Codoxo (formerly named FraudScope) to help make our healthcare system more affordable and effective. Codoxo’s Unified Cost Containment Platform uses AI to identify inaccurate payments earlier than traditional techniques, which helps ensure our scarce healthcare dollars go to real patient care. Dr. Ahmed developed this technology as a part of his Ph.D. dissertation at the Georgia Institute of Technology. A report by the JASON advisory group, the prestigious scientific advisory panel to the US government, reinforced that his doctoral research tackled some of the biggest challenges within the emerging health data infrastructure in the United States. Dr. Ahmed was honored to be included in the 40 Under 40 lists by Georgia Tech and the Atlanta Business Chronicle. Several media outlets have interviewed Dr. Ahmed about his work in reducing healthcare fraud, waste, abuse, and error. When he’s not eliminating payment inaccuracies, you’ll find him volunteering for various causes and spending time with his family.
