Role Description:

The purpose of a Nurse Practitioner at Oak Street Health is to provide effective and equitable value-based primary care to adults on medicare to keep them happy, healthy, and out of the hospital. Nurse Practitioners see patients independently and collaborate with physicians, depending on the patient's specific situation.

We partner with a network of elite specialists and hospitals for specialty and acute care.

  • Assisting the care team with phone triage and outreach.
  • Educating patients on their health conditions, care plans, and treatments.
  • Participating in Oak Street Health promotional activities.
  • Conducting home visits as needed.
  • Other duties, as assigned.
Required Qualifications:
  • Master of Science in Nursing, Doctor of Nursing Practice, or NP Certificate Program graduate
  • National certification in at least one of the following specialties:
    • Family Nurse Practitioner
    • Adult-Gerontology Primary Care Nurse Practitioner
    • Adult Nurse Practitioner
    • Gerontological Nurse Practitioner
  • Active, non-probationary state Nurse Practitioner license
  • Active DEA license
  • US Work Authorization
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Experience in primary care: internal medicine, geriatrics, or family medicine
  • Understands HCC (Hierarchical Condition Categories) documentation, ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases-10) Coding, and Health Risk Assessments (HRAs).
  • Passion for teamwork and the opportunity to collaborate cross-functionally
  • Desires to be a part of an innovative model focused on empirically-guided population health
  • Bilingual proficiency in applicable areas
