Procurement Assistant, Bureau of Equitable Health Systems
Part-time Agency: Department of Health/Mental Hygiene Compensation: USD 17 - USD 21.4 Job Description
College Aide - Junior-Senior PROGRAM AND JOB DESCRIPTION: The Center for Health Equity & Community Wellness (CHECW) seeks to eliminate inequities resulting in premature mortality. With an unwavering grounding in history and structural analysis, CHECW works to increase visibility of the harm perpetuated by centuries of socially unjust policy while pushing towards redress for the most impacted NYC communities. CHECW addresses inequity across community and healthcare systems in partnership with community, faith-based, and health care organizations. CHECW's work focuses on social determinants of health, including environmental and commercial determinants, and addresses both upstream and downstream factors to improve health and well-being of New Yorkers. CHECW is comprised of the Bureau of Bronx Neighborhood Health, the Bureau of Brooklyn Neighborhood Health, the Bureau of Harlem Neighborhood Health, the Bureau of Chronic Disease Prevention, the Bureau of Health Equity Capacity Building, the Bureau of Equitable Health Systems and the Bureau of Finance, Administration and Services. The division's Deputy Commissioner also serves as the Agency's Chief Medical Officer. The Bureau of Equitable Health Systems (BEHS) is the healthcare systems bureau of DOHMH situated within CHECW and supporting the strategic plan and vision of the Chief Medical Officer. Our mission is to apply policy, evidence, and practical expertise to improve equity in health care delivery at the individual, organizational, financing, and systems levels. We aim to operationalize the Board of Health's financing, and systems levels. The mortality experienced due to COVID-19 made visible the inequities that many New Yorkers experience in accessing the healthcare system; as well as the marginalization of essential health workers. As we move forward towards an equitable COVID-19 recovery, we need to develop innovative solutions to improve the performance, equity, and efficiency of the health care delivery system. BEHS includes the Office of Health Insurance Services (OHIS), which provides community-facing programs and on-the ground programmatic work that maximizes health insurance coverage opportunities and increases access to healthcare and social support services such as assistance with SNAP applications to address food insecurities for all New Yorkers. OHIS is currently involved in a few high priority community initiatives and has partnered with the Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs (MOIA), New York City Human Resources Administration (HRA), New York City Department for the Aging (DFTA), and Community-based Organizations. To ensure full compliance of these partnerships, OHIS is seeking to hire a College Aide to help support the program's activities. DUTIES WILL INCLUDE BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO: Assist with the procurement of goods and services that support and advance OHIS education, outreach, and enrollment activities. Support research, planning, and implementation of projects and initiatives that maximize health insurance enrollment and process improvement projects aimed at streamlining the procurement team's workflows and processes. Assist with verification of goods and services and support management of OHIS supplies, and outreach and education materials, and distribution of supplies and resources to program staff. Assist with the submission of Facilities Service Requests, Service Requests, Transportation Requests, Print Requisitions, visitor registration, and other relevant requests.
