Major Duties Policy analysts conduct and lead MACPAC's analytic work on key policy issues affecting Medicaid and the State Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). Analysts focus on one or more aspects of the Medicaid and CHIP program while working collaboratively with other members of the policy team. They work under the direction of the executive director and policy directors. At the senior analyst and principal analyst levels, analysts are expected to conduct increasingly independent analytic work; principal analysts are expected to conceptualize and manage significant bodies of work, often involving other team members. We are seeking candidates with prior experience in Medicaid or CHIP who are able to identify and assess Medicaid and CHIP policy levers for addressing concerns related to access, quality, and cost of care, and developing policy options. Candidates should be able to effectively communicate orally and in writing, translating technical information into clear and concise information for lay audiences. Analysts should produce work that is objective and non-partisan, balance multiple tasks, and work under deadlines, both independently and in collaboration with other team members. Apply subject matter expertise to the analysis of Medicaid and CHIP topics, including proposed policies and developing issues. Prepare analyses for technical support of congressional staff and meet on Medicaid and CHIP topics with internal teams, Commissioners, and external stakeholders including congressional staff. Structure meeting materials and presentations to support decision-making by the Commission and respond to questions from Commissioners in real time on specific aspects of work and its implications. Education MACPAC hires applicants into positions in its analyst career ladder commensurate with experience and expertise. Qualified candidates must possess a bachelor's degree for an analyst position. A graduate degree in health policy, health services research, public policy, public health or other related field is required for competitive senior analyst and principal analyst candidates. Analysts' experience and expertise in a substantive area related to the Commission's statutory mandate is required for senior analysts (five or more years) and principal analysts (seven or more years). Principal analyst candidates are also expected to possess demonstrated experience and success in planning, leading, and executing complex projects and communicating results to lay audiences with minimal supervision.
