    We are inviting Health Research Analysts with a *quantitative focus* to join us in contributing to domestic health policy projects.

    Our current work includes a wide range of topics in health care service delivery and financing, quality measures, and health systems change.

    Health analysts work on a variety of projects spanning policy and programmatic areas as well as program evaluation and implementation support.

    They typically work on more than one project at a time and are matched to projects that suit their interests and skills and offer opportunities for professional growth.

    *Example projects include:

    • Evaluating the implementation and impact of Medicare and Medicaid innovation initiatives aimed at expanding access to care, improving health care quality, promoting health outcomes, or reducing costs.
    • Studying the effects of multi payer delivery system innovations on health care access, quality, health outcomes, and costs.
    • Analyzing, designing, and producing large federal health insurance program datasets and reporting systems.
    • Designing and implementing state-of-the-art methods to measure service utilization and quality of care in support of value-based payment reforms.
    • Assessing the quality of health care in publicly sponsored insurance programs like Medicaid and Medicare.
    • Designing efficient and effective payment models and delivery systems.
    • Contributing to the development, testing, and maintenance of quality measures.
    • Providing technical assistance and learning support for stakeholders, such as policymakers and health care providers.
    • Working with states to address Medicaid payment reform initiatives and multi-payer proposals, improving health service delivery.
    • Conducting analysis and studies on COVID-19 impacts on patient populations and provider services.

    Responsibilities:
    Health Research Analysts with a quantitative focus will participate in key project activities, which vary by project and may include:


    • Contributing to quantitative analyses using large databases to determine program outcomes or to conduct policy simulations, including: o Developing programming specifications for data cleaning and analytic file construction.
    o Summarizing data quality issues.
    o Participating in quality assurance of code and output.
    o Defining analysis specifications and output formats and shells.
    o Developing user manuals and other documentation for reporting systems and analytic tools.
    o Drafting client memos, issue briefs, chapters of analytic reports, and proposals for new projects.

    o Other potential responsibilities, such as:
    + Participating in interviews or site visits to assess the implementation and cost of state, federal, and local health care programs.
    + Supporting analysis of qualitative data collected from interviews, site visits, or other data collection efforts.
    + Providing technical assistance to state and federal health agencies or health care providers (for example, by designing webinars or responding to questions from providers/stakeholders).
    + Reviewing and summarizing the literature on current health policy topics


    Position Requirements:

    • Master's degree in public policy, economics, statistics, public health, social work, or a related field, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
    • Strong analytic skills, including knowledge of quantitative analytic research methods.
    • Strong critical thinking, problem-solving, and time management skills.
    • Excellent oral and written communication skills; ability to write clear and concise technical memos and documents and accessible stakeholder-facing memos, briefs, and presentation materials.
    • Ability to complete tasks on tight deadlines without compromising quality.
    • Ability to support multiple projects and balance competing priorities.
    • Experience working with a state or federal government, foundation, policy research organization, or health care program is highly desirable.
    • Knowledge of Medicare or Medicaid policies and programs, and/or experience working with Medicare or Medicaid eligibility and claims data is a plus.
    • Candidates with post-graduate, relevant professional experience in priority policy areas, such as Medicare or Medicaid, are encouraged to apply.

    To apply, please submit a cover letter, resume, writing sample from an analysis, and salary expectations at the time of your application.

    This position offers an anticipated base salary of $70,000 - $95,000 annually. This position may be eligible for a discretionary bonus based on company and individual performance.

    Staff in our Health unit will eventually work with our largest client, Centers for Medicaid & Medicare Services (CMS).

    Most staff working on CMS contracts will be required to complete a successful background investigation including the Questionnaire for Public Trust Position SF-85.

    Staff that are unable to successfully undergo the background investigation will need to be able to obtain work outside CMS.

    Staff will work with their supervisor to get re-staffed, however if they are unable to do so it may result in employment termination due to lack of work.
