Autonomous Nurse Practitioner – Primary Care | MSK Experience Preferred

Oak Health | Oviedo, Florida

Help shape the next stage of care at Oak Health.

We are seeking a Florida autonomously registered nurse practitioner to help grow primary-care services within our multidisciplinary practice as we work toward expanding into commercial insurance. This opportunity is well suited to an NP who values clinical independence, thoughtful teamwork, and the chance to help build a developing service.

Commercial insurance experience is a major selection priority. Orthopedic or musculoskeletal experience is highly desirable, particularly experience managing common MSK concerns within primary care.

THE ROLE

• Evaluate and manage common acute and chronic primary-care conditions within your education, certification, and authorized scope.
• Assess common musculoskeletal complaints, provide appropriate conservative care, and recognize when specialty referral or urgent evaluation is needed.
• Order and review appropriate diagnostic testing and prescribe treatment within applicable authority.
• Provide preventive care, patient education, and follow-up.
• Coordinate care with other members of the practice and outside specialists.
• Complete timely clinical documentation supporting medical necessity and accurate insurance billing.
• Help develop practical workflows for patient access, follow-up, and insurance-based care.

The role is centered on primary care. Final duties will be agreed upon; any procedural duties require separate review and agreement before inclusion.

QUALIFICATIONS

• Active, unencumbered Florida APRN license and active Florida autonomous-practice registration.
• Current national NP certification appropriate to the agreed patient population and duties.
• Experience providing primary care and exercising sound independent clinical judgment.
• Strong communication, documentation, and care-coordination skills.
• Willingness to participate in payer credentialing and enrollment processes.

EXPERIENCE WE ESPECIALLY VALUE

• Treating commercially insured patients and working with insurance billing workflows.
• Familiarity with medical-necessity documentation, coding support, prior authorizations, referrals, and payer requirements.
• Current payer participation or prior experience completing credentialing and group enrollment.
• Orthopedic/MSK experience applicable to primary-care assessment and treatment.
• Interest in helping a multidisciplinary practice grow thoughtfully.

PAY AND SCHEDULE

$80 per hour for the initial half-day shift. Exact day and hours to be agreed upon. Opportunity for additional hours as patient demand grows; compensation for an expanded schedule will be discussed separately.

Our goal is to grow toward a full-time role as demand supports it; additional hours and full-time employment are not guaranteed.

HOW TO APPLY

Please submit your résumé, availability, Florida autonomous-registration status, and a brief description of your primary-care, MSK, and commercial insurance experience. Please include responses to the insurance checklist below.
