At Float, we’re building a platform to empower patients and clinicians. Through our payments & billing platform, clinicians gain the benefits of a dedicated billing service without the cost, and no additional administrative work. For patients, we remove the friction of understanding coverage and using insurance for out-of-network services by verifying eligibility, advancing reimbursements and automating claim filing, all through our modern frontend clients.

We believe everyone deserves easy access to affordable healthcare from the provider that they choose, and we're excited to offer a solution that lowers patient out-of-pocket costs while improving the financial health of provider-owner businesses. While we’ve maintained an initial focus on mental health, we’re quickly expanding into other verticals that share similar characteristics, and we continue to build our platform to support delivery for our end clients and technology partners.

Our team represents a diversity of experiences, including with the organizations below, and we all share a deep passion for the mental health space.
