Job Description

Help us build the future of healthy aging

Total Life is a national telehealth platform built for older adults. Today, we deliver behavioral health care to Medicare beneficiaries across 49 states through a network of 200+ credentialed providers. We were founded on a simple, personal belief: that the people who spent their lives caring for everyone else deserve care that actually meets them where they are.

We're now expanding into preventative, lifestyle, and longevity medicine — and nutrition is at the heart of it. We're hiring Registered Dietitians to help us build and deliver this care.

This is a ground-floor role. You won't be slotting into an existing clinic; you'll help shape one — the protocols, the patient journey, and the standard of care for online nutrition support for older adults.

What You'll Do

Partner with older adults to assess nutritional needs and build personalized, evidence-based nutrition care plans

Deliver medical nutrition therapy and coaching grounded in lifestyle medicine — with a whole-food, predominantly plant-based emphasis, adapted to each patient's health, culture, and preferences

Support patients managing chronic conditions where nutrition is central (e. g., diabetes, cardiovascular and renal health, weight and metabolic health)

Anchor your work in the 4 M's of Age-Friendly care — What Matters, Medication, Mentation, and Mobility — so every plan reflects what's most important to the patient

Collaborate with our broader care team — lifestyle/longevity NPs, behavioral health, and primary care coordination — to support the whole person

Help shape the clinical model itself: protocols, intake, outcome measures, and the patient experience

Who You Are

A Registered Dietitian (RD) or Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN), credentialed by the Commission on Dietetic Registration, in good standing (required — this credential is necessary to provide and bill for medical nutrition therapy under Medicare)

  • Active state licensure/certification where required to practice
  • Experienced with, and energized by, caring for older adults
  • A natural coach: warm, motivating, and skilled at helping people make changes that last
  • Comfortable practicing via telehealth and excited by the pace of building something new
  • Mission-driven, collaborative, and ready to be a key voice on our clinical team
  • The model
  • 1099, part-time contractor — fits alongside existing work
  • Soft commitment starting around 10 hours/week, with room to grow as the patient panel builds
  • We manage credentialing, scheduling, and billing — including insurance collection risk, which is ours, not yours
  • Patients are primarily Medicare beneficiaries; 21+ population
  • Why this role is different
  • Your fingerprints will be on the entire nutrition model — protocols, standards, patient experience
  • You'll have time to actually care — relationships and outcomes, not rushed visits
  • You'll work with a team that's already delivered outcomes for older adults at national scale
  • 100% remote, with the flexibility of a telehealth-native company
  • At Total Life, we bring the calm of a clear plan to a stage of life that too often feels overwhelming.

How to Apply
