We’re building a world of health around every individual — shaping a more connected, convenient and compassionate health experience. At CVS Health®, you’ll be surrounded by passionate colleagues who care deeply, innovate with purpose, hold ourselves accountable and prioritize safety and quality in everything we do. Join us and be part of something bigger – helping to simplify health care one person, one family and one community at a time.
Title: Medical Scribe
Company: Oak Street Health
Role Description:
The purpose of a Clinical Informatics Specialist (CIS or Medical Scribe) at Oak Street Health is to support our primary care providers with clinical documentation so that they can focus on providing exceptional care to our patients. Scribes assist providers throughout the patient care journey - huddling each morning to plan for the day's visits, joining them in the exam room to observe and document, and touching base after the visit to assist with next steps.
Beyond the typical Scribe role, these important care team members serve as clinical documentation assistants to their paired provider. Internally, we call them CISs (Clinic Informatics Specialists) in recognition of their important role in supporting accurate, specific, and timely clinical documentation. In addition to observing and documenting all patient encounters in real time, our Scribes become experts in our value-based care model and the documentation and care of chronic conditions, including ICD-10 and CPT coding. Scribes use this expertise to help providers identify and help close care gaps. Scribes receive extensive on-the-job training in clinical workflows, value-based medicine, preventative care for chronic conditions, accurate and specific documentation, population health data streams, and team based care.
Because our patients and providers rely on our Scribes, the ideal candidate should commit at least 1-2 years to this role. This is an excellent opportunity for pre-med track individuals looking to gain practical, paid experience in a clinical setting before applying to an MD/DO/PA/NP program, as well as those pursuing careers in Health Informatics, Public Health, Healthcare Administration, Medical Coding, and other related fields.

- Documenting Patient Encounters ~ 80%
- Joining the provider in the exam room to observe patient visits
- Documenting patient encounters in a structured note, including the history of the present illness, assessment, plan, and physical exam

- Consulting with provider to ensure accurate and specific documentation
- Clinical Documentation Improvement ~ 10%
- Requesting and reviewing medical records
- Leveraging Oak Street's population health tools to support clinical documentation improvement
- Preparing for and supporting Daily Huddles and Clinical Documentation Reviews
- Consulting with provider on clinical documentation opportunities
- Administrative support for your provider and care team ~ 10%
- Placing orders and referrals
- Addressing tasks
- Supporting the care team with additional responsibilities related to clinical documentation
- Other duties as assigned

- Ability and willingness to take direction and be a member of a team providing patient care, including adapting to the provider's working style [required]
