Senior analysts focus on one or more aspects of the Medicaid and State Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP). They work collaboratively with other members of the policy team under the direction of policy directors.
Qualified candidates have knowledge and expertise in Medicaid payment and financing policies. This experience could include familiarity in policy areas such as fee-for-service base and supplemental payments, managed care capitation rates and directed payments, state approaches to provider payment, and payment and rebates for prescription drugs.
Responsibilities
A senior analyst is expected, on a routine basis, to be able to:
conduct analytic work including:
independently translating research, policy, and data analyses into MACPAC products of varying lengths and complexity (e.g., issue briefs, decision memos, report chapters); designing and executing quantitative or qualitative research on Medicaid and CHIP topics with minimal supervision; and preparing analyses for technical support of congressional staff.
communicate effectively orally and in writing by:
conceptualizing and developing content of MACPAC products, organizing information and translating content for lay audiences; and independently presenting analyses and other work at Commission meetings, and to other professional audiences.
ensure quality of work by:
producing work that meets organizational standards for being thorough, accurate, objective, and nonpartisan; and ensuring that work conducted under external contracts meets organizational standards.
represent and speak on behalf of MACPAC in meetings with congressional staff, stakeholder organizations, researchers, government agencies, and others interested in MACPAC's work; and
perform other duties as assigned.
Some senior analyst positions may require maintaining databases, completing statistical reports and data summaries, or using spreadsheets or statistical software to conduct statistical analyses.
