Surescripts Customer Group is a super-fun team full of smart, ambitious and genuine people (yes, real humans). We're a tight-knit group that feels a bit like a family (in mostly good ways), and we value trust and communication big-time. We're hungry to make a difference to the healthcare system, and we do it by focusing intently on our customers. While most companies merely talk the talk, we walk the walk-we truly put our customers at the core of everything we do, and each of us embodies this "customer-first" mindset in our own way.

Working at Surescripts Customer Group, you'll be challenged by the nature of being in a network business and not rigidly categorizing or defining your customers. With so many customers with so many unique needs, you'll have to deliver solutions that are appropriate for each. You'll need to know them really well, and you'll be expected to respond differently to one customer versus another. You'll always be striving to create a truly customized experience with thoughtfully tailored and differentiated services.
