Oak Street’s care model is built entirely on value for its patients, not volume of services. The company is accountable for its patients’ health, spending more than twice as long with patients and taking on the risks and costs of their care.

Develop individualized care plans in collaboration with an interdisciplinary care team (physicians, advanced practice providers, nurses, care coordinators). Provide patient education on disease states, medications, and self-management strategies. Ensure drug therapy appropriateness, dosing correctness based on patient-specific parameters, and cost-effective medication selection. Interpret laboratory and clinical data to develop treatment plans and monitor therapeutic response. Deliver evidence-based recommendations to the managing medical team regarding alternative approaches and regimens. Manage patients under collaborative practice agreements, including initiating, adjusting, and discontinuing medications where permissible. Clinical Program Development & Population Health Identify and engage high-risk or high-cost patients using population health tools, risk stratification reports, and EMR dashboards. Participate in quality improvement initiatives focused on chronic disease metrics (e.g., A1c control, blood pressure goals, medication adherence). Collaborate with care teams to reduce hospital readmissions and emergency department utilization. Develop and maintain clinical protocols, workflows, and documentation templates to support pharmacist-led services. Track and report clinical outcomes, intervention metrics, and quality measures. Interdisciplinary Collaboration Serve as the medication expert on the primary care team, offering evidence-based recommendations for complex regimens. Communicate clinical interventions and care plans effectively via EMR and team huddles. Participate in care team meetings and provider education sessions. Provide clear, succinct, and professional verbal and written recommendations. Ensure a continuum of care by cooperating with external healthcare professionals and organizations.
