o Facilitating internal meetings, including agenda preparation, recording of minutes, and monitoring/following up on action items
o Preparing status reports, PowerPoint presentations, and other materials with a high attention to detail and understanding of audience
· Reporting to Our Partners: Our care transformation programs are funded by a portfolio of grants and other federal-, state-, and city-wide initiatives, each requiring timely reporting to funders and partners. Tasks will include:
o The whole team, coordinator included, works to develop key reporting metrics for internal team performance and for practice/provider progress on goals.
o Serves as the lead on tracking and reporting this progress using different tools, such as Salesforce and Excel
o Generating reports from data sources (e.g. Salesforce), collating information across different sources, conducting quality assurance activities to ensure data accuracy and sufficiency against reporting requirements, and formatting reports according to partner/funder needs
· Helping Us Communicate with Healthcare and Community Stakeholders: We need to communicate with primary care providers both in groups, at trainings and other virtual events, and individually, through email and phone outreach. Coordinator tasks include:
o Managing logistics for group trainings for medical practice staff (we lead about 25 per year), webinars, and learning collaboratives
o Conducting outreach to providers for recruitment for new programs, and for sharing updates on existing programs
- Supporting external meetings, including scheduling and invites, agenda preparation, preparation of materials, recording of minutes, monitoring and following up for action items
· Supporting Special Projects: Especially during the pandemic emergency, we have needed to be very agile, adding new COVID-19-related projects at very short notice.
