Company: Oak Street Health
Title: Clinical Call Center Triage Nurse
Location: Various
Company Description
Oak Street Health is a rapidly growing company of primary care centers for adults on Medicare in medically-underserved communities where there is little to no quality healthcare. Oak Street's care is based on an entirely new model that is based on value for its patients, not on volume of services. The company is accountable for its patients' health, spending more than twice as long with its patients and taking on the risks and costs of their care.

Role Description:
At Oak Street Health, Nurses are an integral member of our Care Teams. The Clinical Call Center Triage RN effectively extends our care team outside of regular clinic hours, addressing patient's medical, social, and psychological needs, via the phone and other future technologies such as telemedicine.
Together our teams are responsible for providing and coordinating care for an intimate panel of patients in our neighborhoods. While the typical primary care panel in the U.S. is around 2,500 patients for a single physician, our panels at Oak Street Health are around 500-750 for a team. This creates an opportunity to spend more time with patients, build deeper relationships, and to better execute/coordinate care plans.
We partner with a network of elite specialists and hospitals for specialty and acute care. As such, our Nurses, with our doctors, focus exclusively on care within the clinic: primary care, care coordination, and population health.
Core Responsibilities:
Determine what kind of care and services the patient needs, direct them to the correct specialist, clinic, hospital, or other acute care setting, while providing clinical input up to the level of the role's competency.
