7 days ago

Boston, United States Partners Healthcare System Full time

The Global Health Delivery Project is a joint initiative of Brigham and Women's Hospital and Harvard

University. Our mission is to improve the health of people everywhere by supporting practitioners to make

better decisions and deliver value-based health care using proven approaches and evidence. We facilitate free

access to clinical decision support tools for the current and future health workforce, research and write case

studies about what works in health care delivery, and run courses for global health professionals. We support

a global network of professionals dedicated to improving the delivery of health care.

Since 2009, the Better Evidence program has helped health care practitioners serving vulnerable populations

gain access to digital tools, such as UpToDate-a leading evidence-based clinical decision support tool -to

ensure that they have the information needed to diagnose, treat, and advise their patients. In the last 10 years,

the Better Evidence team has facilitated free UpToDate subscriptions for 160,000 clinicians in 180 countries

and territories.

In collaboration with the Senior Project Manager, the Project Assistant will provide customer service and

communications support for the Better Evidence program. He or she will directly serve frontline healthcare

practitioners in low-resource settings by responding to inquiries and reviewing incoming applications for

eligibility. The Project Assistant will troubleshoot and escalate issues as needed and may be requested to

assist with other duties or projects as they arise. Through the role, the Project Assistant will learn about health

care settings around the world, gain insight to what it takes to run a digital global health program and scale

quickly, and be part of a unique academic-corporate partnership.
