United Hospital Fund Careers in New York, NY

United Hospital Fund works to build a more effective health care system for every New Yorker. An independent, nonprofit organization, we analyze public policy to inform decision-makers, find common ground among diverse stakeholders, and develop and support innovative programs that improve the quality, accessibility, affordability, and experience of patient care. United Hospital Fund was founded by hospital trustees and other concerned New Yorkers in 1879 as an innovative approach to organizing charitable support for voluntary, nonprofit hospitals in New York City and to help solve shared problems. Known for more than a century as the nation’s oldest federated charity, UHF has played a central role in addressing critical health care issues facing New York, and in the creation of many of the organizations and institutions that today help define the city’s health care landscape, including the Greater New York Hospital Association, Empire BlueCross BlueShield, United Way of New York City, New York Blood Center, Primary Care Development Corporation, New York City AIDS Fund, New York Society for Health Planning, New York Cares, and, most recently, the New York eHealth Collaborative. UHF's groundbreaking initiatives are helping redesign, restructure, and rebuild New York’s Medicaid program; provide a national model for aging-in-place programs; create effective partnerships between family caregivers and health care professionals; and improve quality of care and patient safety.
