The Center for Health Systems Effectiveness (CHSE) works to transform health systems through actionable cross-disciplinary and collaborative research. We deliver clear and actionable findings to health care and policy decision-makers based on evidence from national and state Medicaid data, including the Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS) Analytic Files (TAF). CHSE is committed to providing a welcoming, inclusive work environment that promotes diversity and cultivates collaboration, curiosity, and individual leadership that naturally pushes us toward a highly functional workplace and excellent output.
Principal and Senior Policy Analysts (PPA & SPA) work across the Center's academic and policy research portfolios, focusing on mixed-methods (quantitative + qualitative) evaluations of state Medicaid reform in Oregon, Washington, or across the states. Both roles require strong analytic and writing skills and are accountable for policy or evaluation project deliverables and developing expertise in relevant areas of health care policy (e.g., Medicaid, payment reform, health equity).
The Principal role works independently with minimal guidance from study investigators, leading teams across every stage of producing evaluation project reports and related deliverables. This includes report planning, outlining, delegating, drafting, and ensuring mixed methods synthesis to inform report recommendations. The Senior role will work independently with minimal guidance and oversight from principal roles, leading qualitative data collection and analysis and contributing to project reports and related deliverables as assigned by principal roles.
Both roles may participate in the Center's governing teams, such as the Research Strategy Team or the Research Operations Team.
