Telehealth and Remote Workers, Woven Into the Solidarity Economy

Watershed's Cooperative Remote Work program extends our solidarity ecosystem into the modern practice of telehealth and remote health care — built on HIPAA-compliant shared infrastructure and democratic economics.

 ❧ Why Watershed Remote ❧

Protect Your Practice

We offer a HIPAA-compliant EHR and booking platform, with credit card processing built in. Access the digital landscape by becoming a Watershed Remote Member for $120/year. 

Access to  insurance billing pathway

$65/session for pre-licensed, $80/session licensed

 

Biweekly payroll

Consistent pay, kept organized and on record — one less thing to track yourself.

❧ Mutual Investment  

Shared infrastructure, built and paid into collectively

Set your own rate.

No commission split, low minimum caseload. You set your session rate — you're paid that rate minus $15/session with a yearly membership at $120, which funds the shared infrastructure. 

 

Designed for practitioners at every stage of building their practice.

Professional EHR + Billing

Log in to a HIPAA-compliant EHR and booking platform with credit card processing already built in — no separate tools to buy or manage. Access an insurance billing pathway too: $65/session pre-licensed, $80/session licensed. You bring your practice. We bring the infrastructure to practice it well. 

Values-Aligned Community

Watershed is a Multi-stakeholder Solidarity Cooperative focused on establishing accessible health and wellness care in our community — by ensuring that the practitioners delivering that care have access to professional, non-extractive workspace.

 

 

The Path Forward

Follow the Water

Submit your application and resume. Tell us who you are, what you practice, and what you are looking for.

02

CONNECT 

We will review your application and credentials and reach out to schedule a conversation. This step is about more than logistics — we are looking for practitioners who believe that healthcare can be delivered differently, and that the most transformative outcomes happen in the liminal space where individual practice meets collective care. And that cooperative ownership is not just a business model — it is a commitment to each other, and community centered medicine. If that resonates with you — we want to hear your voice.

03

JOIN 

Once approved, you'll receive your membership code and a direct link to get started.

Your membership is your entry point into Watershed — unlocking your EHR and booking platform, connecting you to our practitioner community, and opening the door to something most telehealth platforms will never offer you: a real pathway to ownership.

This is not just access to a platform. It is the first step inside a worker-owned cooperative built on the belief that when the infrastructure of care is shared, the decisions made in the room with a client can be about the care itself — not the business of offering it.

04

ONBOARD

Complete your agreement, licensure documentation, payroll setup, and $120/yearly membership for account activation. We'll get you access to the EHR and booking platform so everything's ready before your first session.

05

Start seeing clients with mentorship from an existing Worker Owner alongside you. After 6 months, you're eligible to begin the Worker Member pathway — deeper into ownership, governance, and a share in what we are building together. 

PRACTICE + GROW

Every path at Watershed begins with a single step. We are glad you are here.

What If Work Supported Life?

And not the other way around.

Most of us were taught to fit our lives around our work. To grind. To hustle. To build a solo practice from scratch and carry every piece of it alone — the taxes, the software, the website, the booking system, the marketing, the building maintenance, the billing.

 

What if it didn't have to be that way?

 

Watershed Wellness COOP is an experiment in cooperative structure — a living attempt to build a different relationship between work, community, and wellbeing. Not a group practice. Not a corporate employer. Something genuinely different.

IF YOU ARE READY TO GO DEEPER

Some practitioners arrive at Watershed looking for more than a room. They are looking for a way out of hustle culture. A way to use their energy to build the world they want to live in. A way to participate in something that outlasts any one session or any one client. If that is you — this is for you. Watershed's cooperative ownership pathway is open to every renting member who wants to take it. There is no pressure and no timeline. But when you are ready the door is open. Becoming a Worker Member and eventually an owner begins with alignment, and participation in our cooperative community. 

As a Worker Member moving toward ownership you step into:

✦ Democratic governance — one member one vote on the decisions that shape your workspace and your community

✦ Surplus distribution — a share of what the cooperative earns paid back to the people who generated it biannually in December and June

✦ Collective stewardship — a voice in what gets built, what gets repaired, what gets invested in, and where Watershed goes next

✦ Economic participation in the cooperative movement — joining a global community of businesses built on the belief that the people doing the work       deserve to own it.

This is still work. We are still inside capitalism. Watershed does not promise to fix that. But it is a genuine attempt to practice differently inside of it — together.
