Background

United Hospital Fund is an independent, nonprofit organization working to build a more effective health care system for New Yorkers, one that is affordable and accessible, provides a better patient experience and the highest quality of care, and achieves optimal outcomes—with a special focus on the needs of the most vulnerable. UHF’s Medicaid Institute works to achieve this vision by informing policymakers and the public on key Medicaid issues to help strengthen the program, which is a vital source of coverage and health care for more than 6 million New Yorkers. The Medicaid Institute has been at the forefront of numerous high-profile initiatives over the past few years including DSRIP Promising Practices included in New York’s Medicaid waiver renewal efforts, the First 1,000 Days on Medicaid Initiative, and Children’s Value-Based Payment reforms.

 

This job posting is for a dynamic Director, Medicaid Institute to work closely with the Senior Vice President for Policy and Program. The chosen candidate will manage a more than $1 million annual budget and will coordinate with internal and external partners to develop and deliver analysis and programming focused on strengthening and improving New York’s Medicaid program.

 

JOB SUMMARY:   The Medicaid Institute Director leads a team of research and policy staff in analysis, convening, and policy development, partnering with the New York State Department of Health and other stakeholders to improve the State’s more than $70 billion annual Medicaid program serving over 6 million New Yorkers. The Director: leads program strategy, analysis, budgeting and reporting; directs specific projects; represents UHF at external meetings; authors analytic reports; develops and maintains in-house Medicaid and related budget policy expertise; develops and maintains relationships with State officials and other Medicaid stakeholders; tracks policy changes and considers implications and impacts; contributes to planning high-level invitational meetings; manages work of consultants and research staff; conducts statistical programming and claims data analysis; engages in strategic planning, collaboration, and fostering core values across UHF, especially health equity.

Assess the potential impacts on Medicaid spending, and on health equity, specifically access to services and quality of care and health outcomes.

 

6.              Conceptualize and develop scopes of work leading to publication and presentations. Contribute to planning invitational roundtable meetings and public conferences, including preparing agendas, contacting and screening potential speakers, and delivering presentations.

 

7.              Manage analytic work and review draft publications conducted for UHF by outside contractors.
