Company: Oak Street Health Title: Medical Scribe (Clinical Informatics Specialist) Location: 2668 Peters Creek Pkwy, Winston-Salem, NC 27127 Role Description: At Oak Street Health, Clinical Informatics Specialists (CIS), or Medical Scribes, serve as vital clinical documentation assistants, supporting our primary care providers. Each Scribe is paired with a single provider, joining them in the exam room, during team huddles, and conducting post-visit summaries to ensure accurate, specific, and timely documentation. Our Scribes receive extensive training to become experts in our value-based care model, ICD-10 and CPT coding, electronic medical records, and population health.  Their contributions allow our interdisciplinary team to proactively identify and help close care gaps, provide preventative measures for chronic conditions, and provide great patient experiences. This role is designed for individuals seeking significant clinical exposure, particularly those on a pre-med or healthcare administration track.

This opportunity offers an immersive, paid position to gain clinical experience, chronic disease management, and a deep understanding of patient care workflows before advancing to MD, PA, Nursing, or other professional healthcare programs.
