Veritas Surgery

What Veritas Surgery does

Veritas Surgery is a privately held, physician-led cash-pay surgery group founded in 2022 and headquartered in Moscow, Idaho, serving the Pacific Northwest across four hubs (Boise, Moscow, Post Falls, and Pullman). The company provides surgical care in six specialties — General Surgery, Orthopedic Surgery (Sports Med, Foot/Ankle, Total Joint, Shoulder/Hand), Spine & Neurosurgery, Podiatry, and Gynecology — delivered by a network of 14 board-certified/eligible surgeons, including Chief Medical Officer Dr. Matthew Abraham. There is no proprietary technology platform; differentiation rests on an operational and pricing model that bypasses insurance billing in favor of all-inclusive bundled pricing per surgical episode, with example procedure prices ranging from approximately $6,500 for hernia repair to $24,500 for total knee replacement, advertised at 40-60% below typical insurance-network rates.

The company operates a hybrid go-to-market combining direct-to-consumer cash-pay (serving uninsured patients, HDHP holders, health-sharing ministry members, and Medicare beneficiaries without Part B) with a B2B employer surgical carve-out product targeting self-funded and level-funded employers, channeled through benefits brokers and consultants. Strategic channel partnerships with three health-sharing ministries — Sedera, Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM), and Samaritan Ministries — actively direct member flow to Veritas through IUA waivers and travel incentives, while employer integrations coordinate with TPAs and stop-loss partners to deliver defined maximum cost per case. Surgeries are performed at affiliated facilities including Palouse Surgery Center, Pullman Regional Hospital, and Pleasant View Surgery Center. The company is independently operated with no disclosed parent, no venture or private-equity backing, and no revenue or funding figures on record.

Partnerships

Eight partnerships are on record, tiered core and minor.

• SederacoreChannel Partner/ Reseller/ DistributorSedera is a health-sharing ministry that actively directs its members to Veritas Surgery. Sedera provides a $1,500 IUA (Initial Unshareable Amount) waiver for any procedure performed at Veritas, meaning members pay $0 out-of-pocket for their surgical episode. Sedera processes payments through its Medical Needs team (Savvos), creating a structured referral and payment channel.
• Christian Healthcare Ministries (CHM)coreChannel Partner/ Reseller/ DistributorCHM is a faith-based healthcare sharing ministry. Its Complete Surgical Care Solutions (CSCS) program connects members with top-rated, board-certified surgeons at Veritas and waives up to $1,250 of the Qualifying Amount per incident for Veritas surgeries. CHM also covers travel-related expenses for approved surgical care including gas, flights, lodging, and other qualified costs.
• Samaritan MinistriescoreChannel Partner/ Reseller/ DistributorSamaritan Ministries is a health-sharing ministry. Because Veritas meets Healthcare Bluebook's fair price award criteria, Samaritan waives the entire IUA (Initial Unshareable Amount) for Veritas procedures. Samaritan's MTIP (Medical Travel and Incidentals Program) provides additional incentives: $1,000 share credit, waived IUAs, gas/flight costs, $300 per diem, and lodging for members traveling over two hours to Veritas.
• Third Party Administrators (TPAs)coreImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerVeritas coordinates with independent TPAs to implement its surgical carve-out alongside existing plan networks. The company provides sample plan document language and works with brokers, consultants, and TPAs to define maximum cost per case within self-funded and level-funded plan structures.
• Stop-Loss PartnersminorImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerVeritas supports stop-loss strategy alignment for self-funded employer clients. The surgical carve-out reduces stop-loss exposure by replacing unpredictable hospital billing with transparent, bundled pricing, and predictable per-case maximum costs, which supports cleaner renewal modeling.
• Palouse Surgery CentercoreTechnology or IntegrationVeritas performs surgeries at Palouse Surgery Center for patients in the Moscow/Pullman region. This is one of the primary affiliated surgical facilities enabling Veritas to deliver its bundled pricing model.
• Pullman Regional HospitalcoreTechnology or IntegrationVeritas performs surgeries at Pullman Regional Hospital for the Moscow/Pullman region. Dr. Edwin Tingstad serves as Chairman of the Department of Surgery at Pullman Regional Hospital.

Scale indicators6 records

Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Broad incumbents

• HCA Healthcare: HCA is the largest U.S. for-profit hospital operator with significant ASC and orthopedic service-line exposure; comparable to Veritas on surgical service delivery but as a broad incumbent with national pricing power rather than cash-pay positioning.
• Hospital for Special Surgery: HSS is the largest U.S. specialty hospital focused on orthopedics and rheumatology, performing high-volume joint replacement and spine surgery. Comparable to Veritas on specialty concentration (orthopedics/spine) and clinical quality positioning, though at national-institution scale.
• Surgery Partners: Surgery Partners is a large operator of ambulatory surgical centers and surgical hospitals across the U.S. It overlaps with Veritas on surgical delivery and ASC channel but operates at much larger scale and within traditional insurance billing rather than cash-pay.

Direct peers

• Direct Orthopedic Care: Direct Orthopedic Care operates a cash-pay, transparent-priced orthopedic urgent-care and surgical platform across multiple U.S. metros, directly mirroring Veritas's physician-led, bundled-pricing orthopedic value proposition while operating at larger scale.
• Rothman Orthopaedic Institute: Rothman is a large, physician-led orthopedic specialty group providing total joint, sports medicine, and spine care across the Mid-Atlantic — comparable to Veritas in being a multi-surgeon orthopedic platform with bundled services, though serving a different region and insurance model.
• Centivo: Centivo is a health plan provider for self-funded employers built around a curated network and bundled surgical pricing, with employer-facing sales motion analogous to Veritas's B2B carve-out and shared focus on transparent bundled costs for high-cost surgical episodes.
• Carrum Health: Carrum Health offers a bundled surgical care platform for self-funded employers and TPAs with transparent upfront pricing across a curated network of surgeons — closely matching Veritas's employer-facing motion, bundled-pricing model, and target buyer (benefits/HR leaders of self-funded plans).
• Lantern (formerly Surgery Plus): Lantern is a surgical care carve-out platform for self-funded employers, providing bundled pricing for planned procedures across a national network of surgeons — directly comparable to Veritas's employer carve-out product on business model, customer (benefits broker / self-funded employer), and category (planned surgical episodes).

Emerging players

• Sesame: Sesame is a direct-pay healthcare marketplace offering transparent upfront pricing across a range of specialties including surgery, sharing Veritas's core cash-pay and price-transparency DNA but with a broader marketplace model rather than a curated surgeon group.
• MediBid: MediBid operates a patient-driven healthcare marketplace connecting consumers to cash-pay providers across the U.S.; comparable to Veritas on cash-pay positioning and consumer self-direction, though as a marketplace rather than a direct provider.
