Position: Medical Scribe

Company: Oak Street Health

Role Description

The Clinical Informatics Specialist (CIS or Medical Scribe) at Oak Street Health plays a crucial role in supporting primary care providers with clinical documentation, enabling them to focus on delivering outstanding care. Scribes assist throughout the patient care journey — from morning huddles to plan the day’s visits, joining providers in exam rooms to observe and document, and following up after visits to support next steps.

Beyond documentation, these team members serve as clinical documentation assistants, ensuring accuracy and specificity. They become experts in our value-based care model, chronic condition management, and coding (ICD-10 and CPT). Extensive on-the-job training covers clinical workflows, preventative care, population health data, and team-based care.

Ideal candidates should commit at least 1-2 years, making this an excellent opportunity for pre-med students or those pursuing careers in health informatics, public health, healthcare administration, medical coding, and related fields.
