Nurse Practitioner (Remote, IL License Required)

About Us

Galileo is a team-based medical practice working to improve the quality and affordability of health care for all. Operating across 50 states, Galileo offers high-touch, data-driven, multi-specialty, longitudinal care to diverse and complex patients—on the phone, in the home, and everywhere in between. Regional and national health plans, employers, and Fortune 500 organizations trust Galileo as the leading solution to improve population health. Founded by Dr. Tom X. Lee, the healthcare pioneer behind One Medical and Epocrates, Galileo is a team of leading innovators from healthcare, technology, and human-centered design. Our mission is to apply that talent and scientific thinking to transform society by solving our largest, toughest healthcare problems, while at the same time bringing patient and provider closer.

About the Role

Are you a Nurse Practitioner who thrives on connecting with patients and making a real difference in their health outcomes? Do you want to leave behind rigid, cookie-cutter systems and join a dynamic, patient-centered organization that values your creativity and clinical expertise? If you're passionate about improving outcomes at scale and energized by meaningful patient engagement, we want you on our team.

At Galileo, we're transforming healthcare by delivering personalized, comprehensive care to those who need it most — underserved patients and those with complex medical needs. We use technology, data, and operational rigor to drive outcomes, and we believe the clinicians doing this work are central to that mission. We're a digital-first medical group, and we're proud of the culture we've built: inclusive, collaborative, and deeply committed to health equity.

Galileo is looking for a culturally-competent Nurse Practitioner to join our Population Health team. In this role, you will use phone and video-based care to provide high-quality, comprehensive follow-up care to patients who are post-hospital discharge.

Here's what you'll do:

• Cover our care needs for our Transitions of Care program. 
• Day to day work includes telephonic outreach (“cold calls”) and scheduled video/phone visits for patients who have recently been hospitalized and discharged. 
• Visits focus on: Medication reconciliation, symptom screening, and ordering of any needed follow-up labs, medications or supplies. 
• You will also navigate conversations with patients to build trust, explain Galileo's care model and connect them to services.
• Coordinate care across settings — hospital and ED transitions, pharmacies, and community providers — to keep patients connected and moving forward.
• Collaborate with our nursing team
• Be accountable to individual performance targets while contributing to team-level population health goals

How We Work

Galileo is a 24/7 medical group that provides high-quality, comprehensive primary care as well as transition of care follow-up. We work in 4-hour shifts (mornings, afternoons, evenings, overnight on weekdays and weekends). At 24+ hours you will be considered full-time and benefits eligible. Providers are expected to work weekends on a monthly basis, specific schedule will be influenced by total hours committed and patient care demands.

We are currently looking for a Nurse Practitioner with an active license in IL who is available to work a minimum of 24 hours/week.

Compensation

$75/hour (regular rate) and $85/hour (premium rate)

About You
