Senior Design Technologist Lead

Company DescriptionToday, when you go to your doctor and get referred to a specialist, your doctor sends out a referral and tells you, “They’ll be in touch soon.” So you wait. And wait. Sometimes days, weeks, or even months. Why? Because too often providers are overwhelmed with the painstakingly tedious work required to get paid by insurance companies. Powered by proprietary models, Tennr handles the complex paperwork that gets patients through the door and providers paid, helping operators to capture more referrals, cut denials, and reduce care delays.Role DescriptionFor as large of a sector as it is (17.3% of US GDP), healthcare has some of the ugliest design we’ve ever seen. It makes sense… high regulation, little incentive… but what if it didn’t have to be that way?Part of our company mission to bring healthcare into the information age means completely redefining the design standards for all the healthtech companies that follow.
