About us

Klaim is an award-winning fintech company headquartered in Abu Dhabi Global Market ADGM, Abu Dhabi, UAE with offices in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Riyadh. Since 2019, we’ve been revolutionizing the healthcare industry by giving providers access to the working capital they need to grow faster and serve patients better. By helping providers thrive, we help patients thrive too.

What we do

By regulation, accepted claims should be paid within 45 days after submission. However, according to our database, a typical cycle from submission preparation to claim payment takes between 60 to 90 days, heavily impacting healthcare facilities cash flow. On average, insurers take 120 days to pay 90% of submitted claims.

We work to restore a balance of power between providers and insurance companies by converting pending claims into working capital within 24 hours of submission. This liberates providers to get back to what’s important: caring for patients.

We accomplish this using an innovative combination of claim purchasing, user-friendly software tools, and expert done-for-you services. Our software tools are simple yet sophisticated and embrace the latest in artificial intelligence and smart automation.

Our current focus is healthcare providers in the UAE and KSA. In the future, we anticipate expanding across the GCC and beyond.

How we started

Klaim is the result of a spontaneous coffee meeting.

Cofounders Ghafoor Ahmad and Karim Dakki met for the first time at a coworking space. A casual conversation about their respective careers led to a sudden brainstorm: instead of seeking reimbursement on the provider’s behalf, why not purchase the claim instead?

This conversation birthed our Klaim Kapital concept, which became the foundation for our full range of solutions.

After launching, dozens of healthcare providers in the UAE participated in our beta program. More recently, we’ve officially partnered with Dubai Healthcare City to give stakeholders special access to our services.

Today, we’re motivated by the profound impact our solutions have had on healthcare providers. So far, our solutions have saved three providers from the brink of bankruptcy and helped many others achieve faster growth and better patient care.
