Job Description
Our Mission
Healthcare should work for patients but it doesn’t. In their time of need they call down outdated insurance directories. Then wait on hold. Then wait weeks for the privilege of a visit. Then wait in a room solely designed for waiting. Then wait for a surprise bill. In any other consumer industry the companies delivering such a poor customer experience would not survive. But in healthcare patients lack market power. Which means they are expected to accept the unacceptable.
Zocdoc’s mission is to give power to the patient. To do that we’ve built the leading healthcare marketplace that makes it easy to find and book in-person or virtual care in all 50 states across +200 specialties and +12k insurance plans. By giving patients the ability to see and choose we give them power. In doing so we can make healthcare work like every other consumer sector where businesses compete for customers not the other way around. In time this will drive quality up and prices down.
We’re 18 years old and the leader in our space but we are still just getting started. If you like solving important complex problems alongside deeply thoughtful driven and collaborative teammates read on.
