About Rhapsody :

We all know that our healthcare system is complicated. Getting data from one provider to another, or from a provider to a health insurance company, is frustrating for virtually everyone. Imagine developing solutions that help make these data transactions easier and faster. That is what we do at Rhapsody; we make interoperability platforms that allow data – such as patient encounter details, lab results, and billing information – to move seamlessly from one system to another.

While most people will not ever see our products and services during a medical encounter, our interoperability platforms are running behind the scenes. Think of them as the central nervous system helping to move data where it needs to be to improve the patient experience. To learn more about Rhapsody, visit www.rhapsody.health

If using your expertise in a way that impacts our health care system, patient care, and population health sounds like something you would find rewarding, apply today!

What we have to offer you :

  • Comprehensive benefits package on day 1 (medical, dental, vision, life, disability)
  • 401k with a generous company match
  • Unlimited PTO, sick time & volunteer days
