• Identify community programs and resources, and build partnerships to connect consumers with health insurance options and healthcare services.


• Travel to various clinic locations and off-site events to achieve enrollment goals.

• Use and maintain access to MEDES and FAMIS systems to assist applicants with Medicaid applications and renewals.


• Provide culturally and linguistically appropriate assistance to diverse communities, including individuals with disabilities.


• Educate Health Center staff on insurance options so they can support patient enrollment.


• Network with social service and community-based organizations to expand outreach efforts.


• Participate in community events, health fairs, and meetings to promote health insurance options.


• Submit weekly reports on outreach activities, enrollments, and community partnerships.


• Maintain strict confidentiality of all applicant information in compliance with HIPAA.
