Job description

UpLift – Redefining Access to Mental Healthcare

At UpLift, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health — and we're rethinking the mental health care model. UpLift is a multi-sided marketplace, applying technology to empower patients to find Therapists and Psychiatric providers covered by their insurance plan. While 1 in 5 Americans struggle with mental health issues, only 40% of this group received care in the last year. At the same time, only 30% of therapists accept insurance. UpLift acts as the bridge between patient, provider, and insurer — empowering patients to find the best care for their needs at a price they can afford.

Why Join UpLift

Estimated Effective Hourly Earnings*:

Earnings between $73 to $160 per hour is based on a 60-minute session assumption that includes a combination of patient visits and hourly equivalent CPT codes. Compensation for CPT codes can vary based on clinician's license and state of licensure.

Expand access to care

Provide psychiatric services to individuals who otherwise may not have access to mental healthcare.

Collaborative model

Work hand-in-hand with UpLift's network of licensed therapists to deliver world-class, evidence-based care.

All-in-one virtual platform

Focus on your patients — UpLift handles credentialing, enrollment, and platform operations.
