Capitol Street Internships

Health Policy Internships: Spring Semester, Summer, and Fall Semester 2025

Capitol Street is looking for Health Policy Interns to join our team!

We are a small, collaborative team working at the intersection of health policy and business. As a Health Policy intern, you will work across sectors as diverse as hospitals and health insurance to pharma and biotech. And you will work alongside colleagues with deep experience in both Policy Analysis and Wall Street.

What We Do

Capitol Street is a boutique advisory firm in downtown Washington DC that helps clients decipher U.S. health policy and how it impacts both people and business. Our aim is to help our clients, who are leaders in industry and capital markets, be strategic by better understanding the policy and regulatory environment.

Who We are

We’re proud of our team and the way we work together and support one another. We value growth and development and foster an environment of regular feedback and continuous learning. We do internal teach-ins, foster communication, and help our colleagues learn and grow intellectually.

We are:

• Unbiased and non-partisan

• Analysts, not lobbyists

• Valued for our insights and independent approach

The Role

As Health Policy Intern, you will analyze trends and new developments in health policy and healthcare industries. You’ll help the team synthesize our findings and communicate them to our clients. We will help you grow.

Policy can change at a moment’s notice. We aim to turn around our analysis quickly – sometimes within hours of a new regulation, legislation or industry move. The research process involves reading materials, analyzing reports and data tables, and actively listening in hearings and other events either in person or via webcast or conference call. Work products based on this research may include written analyses, data analyses, email updates and presentation updates as needed.

Role Specifics:

• Attend Congressional hearings & roundtables

• Read & analyze relevant reports from key government offices, such as the Congressional Budget Office, influential think tanks such as Kaiser Family Foundation, and top healthcare industry groups

• Succinctly describe research findings on timely issues such as Hospital purchasing trends, Amazon health ventures, Medical technology and Biopharmaceutical payments and Healthcare legislating and their potential economic impact

• Periodically update website, social media posts, footnote research

• Identify data points from corporate information sources such as Wall Street conference presentations and earnings calls / releases from high-profile public healthcare companies

• Assist with preparing and communicating information for our clients in the form of charts or slides – presentations, research memos, emails and calls

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate has a strong interest in health policy and economic impact, and is an organized self-starter. The candidate also is a succinct writer and has strong analytical skills.

Candidates are Bachelor’s degree candidates with coursework and/or relevant experience in healthcare policy.
