The Client

Decode Health is a Nashville-based healthcare technology company specializing in biomarker discovery and clinical decision support. As technology continues to transform the healthcare industry, Decode Health leverages advanced analytics and AI-driven tools to bring clarity to complex medical data—helping improve decision-making and outcomes across human health.

Founded with a focus on diagnostics, Decode Health has evolved into a lean, highly efficient organization that prioritizes innovation, precision, and long-term impact. As the company has grown and adapted to rapid advancements in data analysis and AI, it has relied on trusted partners to support its people and operations.

LBMC Employment Partners has been Decode Health’s PEO since 2015, allowing the company to scale effectively while maintaining operational stability.

The Opportunity

As a growing technology company competing for top talent, Decode Health faced a challenge common to many small organizations: offering competitive benefits and managing HR complexities without diverting leadership focus away from innovation and growth.

“In the early days, it was challenging for a small company to go to market for healthcare benefits,” shared Chase Spurlock, CEO of Decode Health. “Leveraging LBMC Employment Partners’ platform allowed us to access better benefits, which have been essential for attracting employees, particularly those with families.”

As the company evolved, so did its HR needs. Decode Health required a partner that could provide enterprise-level capabilities while still offering personalized, high-touch support rooted in shared history and trust.

The Impact

Partnering with LBMC Employment Partners has allowed Decode Health to streamline HR operations, reduce administrative burden, and maintain consistency through periods of growth and change.

“Our partnership started in 2015 and has spanned two companies,” Spurlock explained. “It’s a partnership where I don’t have to invest a lot of my time because there’s a shared knowledge and history that has accumulated over time.”

The LBMC EP team provides deep expertise backed by real-world experience, helping Decode Health navigate payroll, benefits, compliance, and employee support. The relationship also proved its value when Decode Health briefly explored another provider.

“We once changed providers for a year. A competitor promised lower costs and more options, but it turned into an administrative nightmare. I couldn’t return to LBMC Employment Partners quickly enough.”

By combining strong systems with personal service, LBMC Employment Partners enables Decode Health’s leadership to focus on what matters most: investing in technology, supporting employees, and driving innovation in healthcare.
