About Millie

Millie is reimagining the standard maternity care  model with a hybrid care model that combines in person clinic-based care with virtual options. We aim to provide more complete, inclusive, and empowering care with better maternal health outcomes by centering midwifery led care with OB collaboration and augmenting patient and provider experience with judicious application of technology, including app-based education, remote monitoring, and virtual care. We partner with health systems and Medicaid MCO plans to expand access to the Millie model. All services are covered by major commercial insurance plans and Medicaid. Visit www.millieclinic.com to learn more about our care model.

At Millie, we are committed to health equity and culturally competent care — as well as prioritizing, affirming, and celebrating diversity within our team, clinicians, and patients. We strongly encourage BIPOC and LGBTQ+ individuals, veterans, and people with disabilities to apply. Please send us your resume and a statement of interest at careers@millieclinic.com to apply.

This is an opportunity to raise the bar for maternity care, and work with a team of inspiring and committed people. If you are passionate about health technology and maternal health, come join us!
