About Mindful Support Services

Since 2011, we've grown to support more than 2,000 providers by handling many of the administrative complexities that come with running a practice, allowing clinicians to focus on their clients instead of paperwork.

From marketing and lead generation to billing, insurance support, and payment collection, we provide the tools, resources, and operational support that help providers succeed. Our continued growth is driven by a commitment to innovation, partnership, and the belief that better support for providers leads to better access to mental healthcare for the communities they serve.

About The Role

The Provider Membership Specialist is responsible for the timely and accurate execution, processing, and tracking of provider Membership Agreements throughout the onboarding and renewal lifecycle. Serving as a primary resource for providers and internal teams, this role helps answer questions regarding agreement terms, contract options, and contracting processes.

This position plays an important role in supporting provider onboarding, retention, and company growth by ensuring providers understand their agreements, contracting deadlines are met, and potential barriers are identified and addressed early. This role requires strong assessment skills to ensure partnership fit and understanding of contractual obligations. This individual must be able to communicate partnership decisions to prospective providers, including declining candidates who do not meet organizational standards or partnership expectations. Success in this role requires strong organization, attention to detail, proactive communication, and the ability to independently manage a high volume of contracting activities.

The Provider Membership Specialist works closely with the Onboarding and Provider Lifecycle teams to guide providers through contracting decisions, build positive working relationships, and escalate complex negotiations, non-standard contract requests, or significant partnership concerns to the appropriate manager.
