Job description

Goodpath's integrative care model combines the best aspects of conventional medicine with complementary approaches. This comprehensive approach to health and wellness focuses on the whole person and the contributing factors rather than a single complaint or symptom. It is simple, complete care for chronic conditions that affect quality of life. Better than conventional care - this is care done differently.

Goodpath is a mission-driven company in an exciting, high-growth stage, and we expect next year to be even more successful. We anticipate launching with several large employers to care for their employee population, adding to our current portfolio which includes Fortune 500 companies.

• The desire to be an integral part of a team passionate about healthcare innovation
• The ability to confidently navigate uncertain situations with both patients and colleagues
