Role overview
This job description has been rewritten in fresh language using the facts in the listing. Source credit and original listing details are available below.
Uplift is seeking a remote psychiatrist (MD/DO) to provide care through its telemedicine platform to patients seeking insurance-covered mental health services. The platform connects patients, psychiatric providers, therapists, and insurers; Uplift also handles provider credentialing, health-plan enrollment, and platform operations.
This is a part-time, 1099 contract role, not a salaried employee position. Care is delivered remotely, and licensed providers make clinical decisions independently under applicable state telehealth laws and professional standards.
Uplift estimates effective hourly earnings of $119–$242, modeled on 60-minute sessions combining patient visits and hourly-equivalent CPT codes. This is not a guaranteed rate or salary: actual earnings depend on factors including completed visits, CPT code mix, appropriate and documented add-on codes such as 90833, clinical decisions, case mix, scheduling, payer reimbursement, licensure, and geographic market. CPT compensation can also vary by license and state of licensure.

UpLift – Redefining Access to Mental Healthcare
At UpLift, we believe mental health is just as important as physical health — and we're rethinking the mental healthcare model. UpLift is a multi-sided marketplace, applying technology to empower patients to find Therapists and Psychiatric providers covered by their insurance plan.
While 1 in 5 Americans struggle with mental health issues, only 40% of this group received care in the last year. At the same time, only 30% of therapists accept insurance. UpLift acts as the bridge between patient, provider, and insurer — empowering patients to find the best care for their needs at a price they can afford.
