About the Family Van:

The Family Van/Mobile Health Map Program of Harvard Medical School is seeking a Data & Systems Integration Specialist to implement, promote and contribute to the growth/strategy of our programs. The Family Van is a mobile clinic founded in 1992 that works with low-income Boston communities to improve the health and well-being of residents and their families. By taking preventive health care directly to medically underserved communities like Roxbury, Dorchester and East Boston, The Family Van improves health outcomes among people whose needs are not fully met by the traditional health care system.

This innovative model of health care delivery is grounded in clinical evidence and has demonstrated improvements in important health outcomes. Mobile Health Map (MHM), a program of Harvard Medical School, is a national leader in strengthening mobile healthcare and improving access to care for underserved communities. As the Data & Systems Integration Analyst, you will play a key role in implementing MHM's technical and analytic work for State Mobile Health Care Expansion with the goal of increasing access to high-quality healthcare for rural residents across the United States, especially for communities facing significant barriers to care.

This role will help design and operationalize data infrastructure, implement performance measurement frameworks, and support continuous quality improvement (CQI) for The Family Van and The Mobile Health Map platform.

Data & Impact Analytics for The Family Van

• Visit volume, patterns of utilization across sites.
• Community-specific needs and outcomes (e.g., comparison of blood pressure readings across sites, variation in client volume and outcomes by day, location, or weather such as extreme heat, cold, or rain).
• Distinguish new vs. returning clients across regular stops vs. community sites and events, documenting return rates and visit frequency to demonstrate impact.
• Break down total screenings by type.
• Quantify and track referrals (e.g., number, type, destination, follow-up where available).
• Produce regular summary tables, visualizations, and brief reports to inform outreach strategy, scheduling, and resource allocation, drawing on models from other mobile clinics' impact reports where appropriate.

Mobile Health Map Database Strengthening & Visualization

• Improve MHM's data quality, coverage, and integration with relevant public datasets.
• Analyze and visualize data to support an annual impact report and strategic communications for external audiences (e.g., policymakers, funders, partners).
• Help increase participation by mobile clinics in MHM, including supporting onboarding, data submission, and relationship-building with key partners.
• Contribute to tools and analytic insights that position mobile clinics, especially rural units, as essential providers in the U.S. health system.

Data Infrastructure, Analytics & Systems Integration

• Design, implement, and maintain data pipelines integrating clinical encounters, screenings, operations (scheduling, locations, utilization), and referral/care coordination data.
• Support integration with EMRs and the Health Networks (DHIN) to enable secure, high-quality data exchange and continuity of care (non-HIPAA data).
• Build and document structured datasets and data models to power the Mobile Health Performance Dashboard and related analytic tools.
• Apply and help enforce data…
