Partnering with Rula as an independent contractor is completely free, with no minimum hours or caseload requirements. Our providers have the freedom to decide their patient load and schedule.
This varies by license type and location. To get more specific details, complete our quick “get started” form above and schedule time to speak with one of our dedicated team members.
We help attract patients for your practice through direct to consumer marketing and referrals from our insurance partners. We also handle and fund the marketing of your profile online, helping patients find you faster.
For new providers, we gather information about their specialties and the patient populations they'd like to serve. Similarly, for new patients, we collect details regarding the services they are seeking, along with their preferences for a provider's race, gender, language abilities, and treatment specialties.
Patients then receive a tailored list of providers that are covered by insurance to choose from. If you feel a patient isn't the right fit after the first visit, Rula will ensure they're rematched for the care they need.
Rula has no minimum caseload, allowing you to build a schedule that works best for you. You’ll have the ability to manage your available calendar slots, and we’ll work within your set availability and how many patients you want to see to fill you with new patients.
It’s important to us that you receive exceptional support. Our team is available to answer any questions and provide technical assistance. Plus, a dedicated clinical quality team is on hand to offer case consultations and answer any questions related to clinical care.
