The Problem

Severe mental illness affects over 15 million adults in the United States. Schizophrenia. Schizoaffective disorder. Bipolar I. Treatment-resistant depression. These are the conditions the rest of healthcare has systematically failed to build for.

What makes this problem different from most of healthcare is that the tools to solve it do not exist. The clinical protocols, the measurement science, the precision medicine, the technology to deliver coordinated longitudinal outpatient care for this population. None of it has been built. This is a frontier problem, and it requires frontier science and care delivery to solve.

We are developing all of it. The care, the science, the technology.

Who We Are

Amae Health is a Series B, venture-backed Public Benefit Corporation that delivers specialty outpatient care for people living with severe mental illness, including schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar I disorder, and treatment-resistant depression. We design and operate high-acuity, in-person clinics across the United States.

Our model integrates psychiatry, therapy, primary care, dietitians, and community health workers under one roof to deliver coordinated, longitudinal care for a population that has historically been fragmented across systems.

Leading health systems collaborate with Amae to bring this model to their communities, including NewYork-Presbyterian, Cedars-Sinai, Mass General Brigham, Novant Health, and CommonSpirit Health . Our investors include health systems such as Cedars-Sinai and CommonSpirit Health, organizations that evaluated our model clinically and chose to back it.

The Team

We are clinicians, operators, technologists, and scientists who chose Amae because the problem is hard and the stakes are real. We are not interested in incremental improvements to a broken system

Our teams work cross-functionally because the work demands it. The psychiatrist informs the product roadmap. Engineers understand the clinical complexity their technology must solve. Researchers sit alongside the operators running the clinics their work measures.

Every function—finance, product, people, growth, technology—exists to serve one goal: better outcomes for the people we care for.

The Opportunity

Amae Health is seeking a Member Financial Services Analyst to support our mission of delivering world-class, whole-person care for adults living with serious mental illness.

As we continue to grow our ability to care for individuals living with severe mental illness (SMI), the teams that support our work are expanding as well. We are excited to hire a patient-centric Member Financial Services Analyst who will be at the center of how we ensure that members can access care, while supporting the providers delivering that care.

Reporting to the Manager of Member Enrollment & Financial Services, you will function as part of a dynamic team optimizing for excellent member service and streamlined revenue cycle operations. If you are excited to work at a fast-growing, multi-state behavioral healthcare organization at the intersection of healthcare operations and client services — where no two days look the same — we'd love to hear from you!

What You Will Work On

Own and manage the member-facing phone line and email, delivering compassionate, timely, and solutions-oriented support

Review and educate members on Verifications of Benefits (VOBs) so they can access care without delay

Member Financial Advocacy & Education: Serve as the primary contact for members and families on benefits, authorization status, financial responsibility, payment options, and financial assistance, including self-pay cost breakdowns and de-escalating coverage concerns

Authorization Management: Track prior authorizations and proactively communicate outcomes (approved date ranges, units/days, expirations, next steps) partnering with clinical, UM, enrollment, and RCM teams 

Financial Assistance Program (FAP) Administration: Support the Financial Assistance Program end to end (intake, documentation, tracking, and communicating determinations) alongside senior MFS staff

Uninsured Member & Coverage Management: Own the Uninsured Member Tracker: outreach on lapsed/terminated coverage, evaluate alternatives (plan transitions, self-pay, FAP, discharge planning), and reconcile coverage data across systems

Cross-Functional Case Management: Coordinate insurance, billing, and continuity-of-care cases across departments, escalating complex or sensitive situations to senior MFS staff

Payer Portal & Eligibility: Verify coverage, authorization requirements, and network participation through payer portals across commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, and state-specific rules in all Amae markets

Monthly Statement Review: Prepare and review monthly patient statements, audit self-pay balances, and resolve billing discrepancies in line with billing and privacy policies

Ticketing & Documentation: Document and manage MFS workflows in CRM, keeping timely, accurate case records across Foundry, Canvas, Candid, and Drive

Process Improvement: Surface recurring member pain points and workflow improvements to the MFS team

What You'll Have

2–3+ years of experience working within insurance benefits, billing procedures, and prior authorization processes. SMI/behavioral health experience preferred.

Experience using commercial insurance payer portals required; Medicare and Medicaid experience highly preferred.

Experience in an externally facing role, ideally working directly with patients; comfort with phone-based work required.

Strong communicator who can translate complex payer or process issues into clear action steps across teams.

High EQ and service orientation — you build trust quickly with colleagues, partners, and members.

Adaptable and resilient; you thrive in fast-moving, ambiguous environments.

Organized and detail-driven; you can manage multi-step processes without dropping details.

Familiarity with CRM systems, EMR platforms, and operational documentation practices.

Ability and comfort operating on Pacific Time

What We’re Building 

Most healthcare companies ask you to optimize an existing system. We’re building one that has never existed.

A national care model designed for the highest-acuity patients in behavioral health.

Precision medicine for severe mental illness, using multimodal clinical, behavioral, and social data to personalize treatment.

A clinical operating system that integrates longitudinal data, real-time patient signals, and purpose-built tools into a single decision layer.

New science and measurement frameworks to define what real outcomes look like in SMI—stability, functional improvement, and hospitalizations avoided.

A health-system partnership model providing coordinated SMI care can work at scale.

If you want to maintain the status quo, this isn’t the place. If you want to build what doesn’t exist yet—and change how an entire population receives care—keep reading.

Compensation & Benefits 

Compensation includes a base salary of $52,000-$85,000 (based on level & experience) plus equity ownership, giving you a meaningful stake in Amae's growth. Total compensation includes comprehensive medical/dental/vision, unlimited PTO, parental leave, and programs built around employee well-being. We’ll share specifics during the interview process.

Amae Health is building the care platform, the precision medicine, and the frontier science that severe mental illness has never had. If you want to be part of creating something this hard and this important, something that has never been done, we’d like to talk. What We Value

We center care in all we do. Empathy is not a brand value. It’s how we make clinical decisions, build products, and treat each other.

We challenge convention. The existing system is the problem. We question it, we test alternatives, and we move with urgency when something works.

We take the work seriously, not ourselves. High standards and humanity are not in tension. We hold a hard bar for quality while leaving room for humor and levity.

Your job isn’t done until the job is done. We close gaps, we follow through, and we don’t hide behind titles or org charts.

We win together and fail together. We own outcomes as a team. We learn fast. We don’t do blame.

We hustle with humility. Speed matters. So does integrity. We assume best intent and stay grounded in the mission.
