About us
Kinwell Health is a well-capitalized primary care startup operating principally in the state of Washington. Our focus is to create a delightful care experience. We are seeking a Patient Services Coordinator to be the face or our clinics!
Our team is building a place where a sense of belonging thrives. Where your authentic selves are valued and respected. We celebrate diversity of thought, ideas, and culture. We are as passionate about building a great place to work as we are about nurturing the health of those we serve.
We understand that healthcare has become too complex for our patients and for our clinicians. Kinwell Health is leveraging its investment from Washington’s largest not-for-profit health plan, Premera, to create a primary care offering that is holistic, seamless and care centric. For too long, reimbursement for primary care has been misaligned and under-valued. We are working to make a change for our communities; this journey begins with how we serve our patients.
