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.

Responsibilities:

• 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
  • Assigning appropriate CPT and ICD-10 codes
  • Preparing After Visit Summaries
  • 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

Senior Estimator – Industrial, Aviation & Arena Steel Projects

Join a Top ENR-ranked steel erection contractor where senior estimators operate in a high-trust, leadership-accessible environment and play a central role in winning the most complex steel projects in the U.S.

This team values clear communication, early collaboration, and practical decision-making. Estimators are involved from pursuit strategy through execution planning — not siloed after takeoff. The culture supports long-term growth, work/life balance, and continuous improvement.

The Work Environment

• Direct access to executive leadership and decision-makers
• Early involvement in design-assist and preconstruction strategy
• Collaborative estimating team — not transactional or isolated

• Projects that shape national infrastructure and city skylines

Why This Role Stands Out

• Nationally recognized contractor with long-term market stability
• Meaningful influence on bid strategy, pricing, and execution approach
• Clear path into Estimating Manager leadership
• Exposure to nationally significant, career-defining projects

This opportunity is ideal for Senior Estimators with steel erection and heavy industrial experience who want better projects, stronger leadership access, and a sustainable long-term role.
