Operations Associate, Insurance & Clinical Operations

Healthcare is broken at the first step: patients can't find the right care, understand what it costs, or access the medications they need. Mochi Health is fixing this.

We're building an AI-driven marketplace that makes healthcare discoverable—connecting patients to the right providers, transparent pharmacy pricing, and affordable medications. Over the past few years, we've grown rapidly by combining clinical expertise with technology that actually works for real people, not just hospital systems.

Our platform does what legacy healthcare can't: it gives patients transparent pricing before they pay, personalized medication management that follows them across providers, and long-term access to their own medical records. We're proving that healthcare can be more affordable, more human, and far more intuitive than what exists today.

Join a team that's rebuilding healthcare from the patient up. At Mochi Health, you'll work alongside people who value bold thinking, inclusive collaboration, and getting meaningful work into the world. If you want to do the most impactful work of your career, this is where to do it.

About The Role

Mochi Health is a direct-to-patient telehealth company specializing in obesity medicine and expanding into primary care. With over 200,000 active patients, 500+ providers across 50 states, and a proprietary AI-enabled EMR, Mochi is building the infrastructure for a new model of virtual care delivery.

Today we operate primarily on a cash-pay subscription model. Our Insurance & Payer Operations function is one of the company's most important strategic bets: building the clinical, operational, and technical infrastructure to accept insurance and unlock a new revenue stream, and it's the engine behind our expansion into primary care.
About the Role

We're looking for an independently driven, detail-oriented Operations Associate to support both our core clinical workflows and the buildout of our insurance program. This is a blended role: part of your time keeps clinical operations running smoothly, and part helps stand up and scale the insurance and payer side of the business as we grow.

You'll learn the mechanics of payer contracting, credentialing, and compliant billing from the ground up, working closely with Clinical, Product, Care, and Data teams and our Insurance & Payer lead.

What You'll Do

• Optimize clinical workflows by identifying inefficiencies, implementing solutions, and improving care coordination.
• Analyze performance data using AI and other tools to track provider KPIs and drive data-informed decisions.
• Act as a key liaison for providers, gathering feedback and streamlining workflows, and keep provider content and training resources up to date.
• Support day-to-day operations of the insurance program, coordinating across the credentialing team, billing operations, and external partners.
• Help manage provider credentialing and enrollment for insurance panels, tracking timely enrollment and re-credentialing across the payer network.
• Assist with payer contracting: organizing contract and rate information, preparing inputs for rate discussions, and tracking expansion into new payer networks.
• Support a team of agents that review billing and coding, helping monitor their output, surface documentation gaps and denial patterns, and escalate issues that create compliance or revenue risk.
• Monitor claims and vendor performance against collection, denial, and claims lifecycle targets.
• Help keep the program aligned with CMS billing rules, state telehealth parity requirements, and payer documentation requirements, and maintain the related SOPs.
• Partner with Engineering and Product to translate insurance-program needs into EMR requirements, and help define reporting on key program KPIs.

Who You Are

• 0 to 3 years of experience in healthcare operations, revenue cycle, payer operations, clinical operations, or a related analytical role. Health-tech or telehealth exposure is a plus.
• Bachelor's degree in a STEM or related field.
• Comfortable working full-time, in-office in our downtown San Francisco office.
• Analytical and detail-oriented with a proactive approach to problem solving, and comfort using data to inform decisions .
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the judgment to know how, when, and what to communicate.
• Experience working across teams and building relationships with internal and external stakeholders.
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building structure in an early-stage program.
• A team-first mindset: humility, collaboration, and partnership are key.

Nice to have: exposure to E&M or telehealth billing, familiarity with credentialing, payer contracting, or revenue cycle concepts.

Why This Role

• Get in early on the insurance infrastructure for a company at an inflection point, with the potential to transform Mochi's business model and unlock primary care at scale.
• Build a rare dual skill set across clinical and payer operations, with a clear path to grow into payer contracting and revenue cycle ownership.
• Join a lean, high-ownership team where your work has immediate strategic impact.

The base salary for this full-time position ranges from $100,000 to $130,000 including benefits and stock options. The salary range listed in each job posting represents the minimum and maximum targets for new hire salaries across all locations. Actual compensation within this range is determined by various factors, such as job-related skills, experience, relevant education or training, and location.
