So far, we've supported more than 2 million patients across 22 states, completed over 130,000 in-home visits, and maintained a 92 NPS. Our team of clinicians, technologists, and operators have raised over $125M to date from investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel and enjoy multi-year runway.As a Medical Coder, you will be responsible for reviewing and abstracting professional medical records to ensure accurate code assignment.

• You’re naturally curious, proactive and eager to stay current on coding updates, contribute feedback, and shape evolving processes.
• Most of all, you value flexibility, accountability, and being part of a company that’s reimagining how healthcare reaches people where they are.
