Headway is building a new mental healthcare system that everyone can access. We make it easy for people to find quality in-network mental health care by removing historic barriers faced by mental health providers, payers, and patients. 1 in 4 people in the US have a treatable mental health condition, but the vast majority do not get the care they need. The primary reason is cost: the majority of therapists do not accept insurance, meaning paying for therapy is prohibitively expensive for prospective patients. This is where we got our start – Headway has built the first software-enabled network of therapists who accept health insurance, making it easy for therapists to grow their practices, and possible for patients to find quality care they can afford. Headway was founded in 2019. Since then, we’ve grown into a diverse, national network of over 34,000 mental healthcare providers across all 50 states who run their practice on our software. We’re a Series D company with over $325m in funding from a16z (Andreessen Horowitz), Accel, GV (formerly Google Ventures), Spark Capital, Thrive Capital, Forerunner Ventures and Health Care Service Corporation. We believe a team's strength is in its people, and we cannot achieve this mission without a team that reflects the diversity of this problem - across race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, age, national origin, religion, family status, disability, military status, and experience. Headway employees work remotely across the US, with the option to work from our NYC HQ. Headway is committed to the full inclusion of all qualified individuals. As part of this commitment, Headway will ensure that persons with disabilities are provided with reasonable accommodations. If reasonable accommodation is needed to participate in the job application or interview process, to perform essential job functions, and/or to receive other benefits and privileges of employment, please contact [email protected].

Most importantly, our goal is to be the trusted guide, partner, and first call for individuals we serve, guiding them to a life of stability and independence. In doing so, we will not only improve lives, but also improve the economics for managed care plans and states responsible for providing care to this community.

Every morning, 10,000 Americans wake up and begin their first day of retirement. Chapter is re-inventing the way that Americans transition into retirement, starting with Medicare. We are re-authoring the retirement narrative by enabling Americans to age with purpose and security and to define their best Chapter. For most people, Medicare is boring, bureaucratic, and confusing. But it's tremendously important. The current Medicare brokerage market is rife with misaligned incentives and path dependence that have pernicious affects on retirees. Our team and technology help retirees to navigate Medicare, including when and how to sign up, what specific plans to choose, and how to maximize the benefits from their coverage. Chapter has built industry-leading technology to help retirees save thousands of dollars on their healthcare. We are the only Medicare advisor (and perhaps the only insurance advisor of any industry) that recommends insurance plans that do not pay us. We build both consumer-facing software that’s highly accessible to our members and internal-facing software that uses our data integration, data modeling, and recommendation engine to give our Medicare advisors super powers.
