# EnableComp Acquires Helix Advisory to Expand AI Zero Balance Reviews

*Complex revenue cycle management (RCM) leader [EnableComp](https://app.clinicalterminal.com/company/100923704) has acquired Cincinnati-based revenue recovery firm [Helix Advisory](https://app.clinicalterminal.com/company/103957963), according to HIT Consultant. The deal expands EnableComp's Zero Balance Review capabilities by integrating underpayment recovery directly into its e360 RCM platform, which is used for complex claims and denials.*

Helix's technology adds adaptive underpayment detection that scans all zero-balance claims regardless of size, clinical signal detection that cross-references documentation and coding against payer reimbursements, and root-cause analytics to prevent future losses. This replaces traditional rules-based audit logic with pattern-recognition algorithms.

EnableComp supports over 1,000 hospitals and recovers approximately $3 billion annually. Early deployments of Helix's technology reportedly yielded net revenue improvements exceeding 2% on previously unrecognized or written-off revenue. Helix founder [Zack Higbie](https://app.clinicalterminal.com/person/103958394) joins EnableComp as Vice President of Revenue Recovery Products, with backing from private equity firm [Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe](https://app.clinicalterminal.com/company/101389382).
