Job Summary

WellBe Senior Medical is an innovative, private-equity backed healthcare company focused on providing the highest quality geriatric care (care of older adults) to frail, elderly Medicare Advantage patients with multiple chronic medical conditions. This population is typically underserved and very challenged with access to quality care. To address these problems, WellBe has elected to bring the care to the patient, instead of trying to bring the patient to the care. Care is provided throughout the entire continuum of care – from chronic care and urgent care in the home, to hospital, to skilled nursing facility, to assisted living, to palliative care, to end of life care. WellBe's physician-led geriatric care teams provide “concierge” level geriatric medical care and social support in the home as well as delivering and coordinating care across the entire continuum.

 

This is an integral role at an innovative, fast-growing, private-equity backed healthcare company.  You will be responsible for administering a full range of accounting functions including but not limited to preparation of journal entries, monthly reconciliations, analytical review, and process improvement. The staff accountant will ensure accuracy and timely submission of transactions as well as resolution of discrepancies. As an vital member of our growing accounting team, this role will support the organization while gaining exposure to internal departments including IT, marketing, and operations.
