Travel Regional Advanced Practice Provider

The purpose of a Nurse Practitioner/Physician Assistant at Oak Street Health is to provide effective and equitable value-based primary care to adults on Medicare to keep them happy, healthy, and out of the hospital. Nurse Practitioners/Physician Assistants see patients independently and collaborate with physicians, depending on the patient’s specific situation. Nurse Practitioners/Physician Assistants provide longitudinal care and build meaningful patient relationships; this creates trust and helps our patients understand and feel connected to their care plan. Nurse Practitioners/Physician Assistants practice in our outpatient practices on a collaborative care team composed of a physician, nurse practitioner or physician assistant, medical assistants, a dedicated medical scribe, and support from registered nurses and care managers. We partner with a network of elite specialists and hospitals for specialty and acute care. As such, our healthcare providers can focus on care within the clinic: primary care, care coordination, and population health.
