Who we are

Cityblock Health is a new type of healthcare company, operating out of Brooklyn and backed by Alphabet’s Sidewalk Labs, along with some of the top healthcare investors in the country.

Our mission is to radically improve the health of urban communities, one block at a time. Importantly, our solutions are designed specifically for Medicaid and lower-income Medicare beneficiaries, and we bring the capability to deliver care in the home and neighborhood with our field-based teams.

In close collaboration with community based organizations and a leading commercial partner, we are reorganizing the health system to focus on what matters to our members. We deliver personalized primary care, behavioral health, and social services through a network of neighborhood hubs with deep community-based partnerships and world-class technology.

We partner with payers and at-risk providers, taking capitated financial risk to care for their most vulnerable, high and rising risk members. Additionally, we invest in strategic partnerships with community-based and social services organizations, in some instances bringing them into the value equation through sub-capitation and performance-based compensation.

Over the next year we’ll grow quickly, including entering new markets, each with their own commercial relationships and field-based teams. This role will be a key contributor to the success of our business.

The role

We are seeking a talented Credentialing Specialist to help manage licensure and credentialing for our clinicians (MD, NP, PA, RN, LCSW, PharmD) as we scale. You’ll work closely with our Care Delivery, Clinical Operations, Biz Ops, People Ops, and Compliance teams to build a best-in-class credentialing function at Cityblock. This is an exceptional opportunity for a process-oriented, hungry self-starter who is interested in a cross-functional role at a young, rapidly scaling organization.

You will:

• Fully own and build out our licensing and credentialing program from the ground up
• Maintain record of current state licensure, DEA certification, malpractice coverage, and other required credentialing documentation and expiration dates for all providers.
• Project manage renewal process for all provider licensing and credentialing
• Work with new providers to establish licensure and work through the credentialing process with our health plan partners
  

You’d be a good fit if:

• You can quickly build relationships and trust with our clinical team
• You have 2 years of credentialing experience
• You’re a team player, and looking to get into a fast-moving startup environment
• You flourish in fast-paced environments, identifying your own opportunities for success and iterating tightly on feedback
• You are a natural relationship-builder and possess the ability to engage and connect with others quickly
• You are fiercely organized, a self-starter, and know how to prioritize your day
• You are an exceptional communicator and have a strong customer service mindset
• You don’t let details pass you by -- deeply detail oriented

Nice to have:

• Licensed Notary Public
• Experience working with Medicaid and Medicare plans
