[Hiring] Member Care Specialist @Sidecar Health

Role Description

As a Member Care Representative at Sidecar Health, you'll be the voice members turn to when they need help understanding their Benefit Amount, navigating their plan, or resolving issues with claims. You'll handle inbound calls, chats, and tickets with empathy and efficiency, helping members get the most out of a model that's nothing like legacy insurance. This is a front-line role where great service directly shapes how members experience healthcare.

What You'll Do

• Handle inbound calls and chats from members with questions about their Benefit Amount, plan benefits, and how to get money back when they choose lower-cost care.
• Resolve member issues and complaints with empathy, accuracy, and a positive attitude.
• Build rapport with members by listening carefully and meeting them where they are.
• Follow established policies and standard operating procedures while maintaining detailed, accurate records.

What you will grow into

• Support process improvements as Sidecar Health's member base and product evolve.
• Take on expanded responsibilities across claims or member escalations as you grow within the team.
• Contribute to a startup culture where your feedback and ideas help shape how the team operates.

What You'll Bring

• People-first communicator who listens with empathy and can answer questions clearly and confidently in the moment, in writing and by phone.
• Detail-oriented problem solver who spots the small things and helps members navigate their plan creatively and thoroughly.
• Adaptable and resilient — you thrive in a fast-moving, ever-changing environment and stay steady when things shift.
• Strong customer service background; we have successfully welcomed people transitioning from clinical roles like CNAs who bring genuine care for others.
• High school diploma or equivalent required; bachelor's degree preferred.

Nice to have

• Bilingual in English and Spanish.
• Experience in healthcare, insurance, or claims processing.
• Familiarity with ticketing or chat support tools.
• Demonstrated interest in growing within a startup environment.

What You'll Get

• Competitive hourly wage ($20.00), annual bonus opportunity, and an equity package.
• Medical coverage from day one, with 100% of the premium paid by Sidecar for you and your dependents. Choose an HSA-eligible plan or a $0 deductible plan.
• Dental and vision with 100% of your premium covered, and 80% covered for your dependents.
• A 401(k) retirement plan.
• Paid time off, company holidays, and paid parental leave.
• Stay connected: $50 a month toward your internet and $50 a month toward your phone, reimbursed through expenses.
• The opportunity to make an impact at a rapidly growing, mission-driven company transforming healthcare in the U.S.
