The ideal candidate will have a strong background in public health, health economics, or public policy, and will be skilled in data analysis, policy research, and stakeholder engagement.
As a Health Policy Analyst, you will be responsible for conducting in-depth research on healthcare systems, regulations, and trends to inform policy decisions. You will work closely with government agencies, healthcare providers, and advocacy groups to assess the impact of existing policies and propose evidence-based recommendations for improvement. Your work will directly influence the design and implementation of programs that affect population health, healthcare access, and cost-effectiveness.
Key responsibilities include analyzing legislative and regulatory proposals, preparing policy briefs and reports, and presenting findings to internal and external stakeholders. You will also monitor policy developments at the local, state, and federal levels, and provide strategic insights to guide organizational responses. Strong communication skills are essential, as you will need to translate complex data and policy information into clear, actionable recommendations.
The successful candidate will be detail-oriented, analytical, and passionate about improving health outcomes through effective policy. A master’s degree in public health, public policy, health administration, or a related field is typically required, along with experience in policy analysis or a related role. Familiarity with health data sources, statistical software, and policy evaluation methods is highly desirable.
