Clinicians at substance use disorder (SUD) provider Bicycle Health won their union election in a landmark moment for the digital SUD industry.
The National Labor Relations Board tallied votes on Monday, April 15 and found that 64% of ballots favored unionizing with the Union of American Physicians and Dentists (UAPD).
“Today marks an important win for us as providers and for our patients,” read a joint statement from Bicycle Health providers. “For the past couple of years, Bicycle Health has placed increasingly untenable pressure on us, negatively impacting our well-being and our ability to take care of our patients struggling with opioid addiction. … Now that we have unionized, we hope that Bicycle Health leadership will finally listen.”
