Position: Expert to analyze and review health services of AC

Background:
The experience of “Armenian Caritas” in this sector shows that although officially people can access primary healthcare services funded by the state, still the essential health care needs remain unmet and a big group of vulnerable people, including children and the elderly, get deprived of elementary medical services. In its PHC center Caritas serves around 3000 persons in 4500 visits per year. The clinic holds a license of the RA Ministry of Health (RA MH) that authorizes it to provide the following PHC services: laboratory analysis (biochemical and clinical), ultrasound analyses (abdominal, gynecological, etc.), electro-cardiograms (ECG) and cardiological consultations, psychological consultations, endocrinologist’s services, physiotherapeutic trainings and provision of free-of-charge medicine to patients. In long term perspective for providing sustainable health services it is very important from this stage to work synchronized with the State and provide services that can be co-ordered and co-financed by the State.
To address this situation AC is currently looking for an experienced expert to do quality and quantity analysis/research of services provided in AC clinic and present a package of suggestion for positioning of AC services in line with state public health policies.
