Saar Mahna
Founder and CEO
Banjo Health
Mahna founded Banjo Health to give health plans AI-assisted prior auth, appeals, and clinical criteria workflows.
Saar Mahna is founder and chief executive of Banjo Health, a Washington, DC software company building prior authorization and utilization-management tools for health plans and PBMs.
The company's BanjoPA and related modules focus on case workflow, appeals, grievances, and a no-code composer for clinical criteria rather than only outsourcing more nurse review hours.
Mahna has positioned the firm as clinician-informed automation for plan-side authorization teams that still drown in manual packet review and inconsistent criteria encoding.
