PATH Looking For Program Officer- Documentation Digital Health at Greater Delhi Area Full Time

PATH is a global nonprofit dedicated to achieving health equity. With more than 40 years of experience forging multisector partnerships and with expertise in science, economics, technology, advocacy, and dozens of other specialties, PATH develops and scales up innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing heath challenges.

About The Project

There have been persistent efforts focused on improving primary healthcare (PHC) and overcoming the hurdles of low coverage and poor quality of health services through several Digital Health interventions. However, majority of these initiatives are designed with very specific clinical or administrative purposes and lack a comprehensive ecosystem approach resulting in multiple applications and digital portals in use for their health system. This cascades into poor accountability and performance, time and resource wastage, lack of continuum of care, and low coverage of health services, resulting in poor health outcomes. PATH is supporting the state of Maharashtra with digitization of primary level of care and health service delivery in select districts. The project intends to demonstrate end to end digitization in healthcare and develop a digital saturation model at district level, leveraging fit for purpose digital solutions/interventions through the use case of improving reproductive, maternal and child health service delivery indicators. The district saturation model will include coverage across rural & urban areas and service delivery across public and private sectors. The focus will be on digitizing healthcare facilities, community health initiatives/programs and deploying innovations for accelerating service delivery across continuum of care. The project aims to form a digitally competent health workforce, improve access to health and systems-level data for resource planning and management, enable creation of longitudinal health records for patients, and enable interoperability of digital systems across healthcare facilities. This will result in data-driven decision-making leading to improved access and service coverage, citizen empowerment, quality care, and enhanced healthcare provider accountability. These positive health outcomes, complemented by favorable policies, governance support, local leadership, and partnerships, will accelerate Universal Health Coverage (UHC).
