Senior Accountant

About Stellar Health:

Historically US Healthcare has relied on a fee-for-service reimbursement system where providers are paid based on the quantity of patient visits and procedures rather than the quality of health outcomes.

At Stellar Health we help primary care providers put patient health first. Our platform - a mix of technology people and analytics - supports providers at the point of care delivering real-time patient information activating practice staff and empowering providers and care teams with incentives that reward the work they are already doing to keep patients healthy. Using the Stellar App our web-based point-of-care tool; practices receive a simple checklist of recommended actions that support the best quality care. Providers and care teams are then paid monthly for each action they complete and Payors save money in reduced healthcare costs along the way.

Stellar is a US-based Health-tech backed by Top VCs (General Atlantic Point72 & Primary Venture Partners) with an established product & proven operating model. Weve shown that we make a real difference for physician practices and their patients.
