About the Role
In Australia, barriers to understanding the continuum of care exist as a result of health data being collected by different levels of government and private organisations, fragmenting the view of the patient journey as patients move between primary care and acute care services.
LUMOS is a pioneering initiative that links data across primary, ambulatory and acute care at the patient level, creating a state-wide data collection that is used to enhance our understanding of the patient journey across the health continuum. LUMOS is the first large scale linked primary care data asset in Australia and is available to NSW Health, Primary Health Networks (PHNs) and general practices (GPs), and to external parties in partnership with NSW Health or PHNs.
LUMOS provides reliable information to guide service design and integration, the commissioning of services, improved patient experience and outcomes, and the strategic directions of the NSW health system across primary, secondary and tertiary care.
The Senior Manager will lead the continued expansion of LUMOS and transition of LUMOS to business as usual. The Senior Manager is responsible for program management and further development. This will involve extensive stakeholder engagement across NSW Health, PHNs and GPs, and leading a multi-disciplinary team of project managers and officers, business analysts, statisticians, subject matter experts and health economists (staff, contractors and vendors) to develop and achieve the desired program outcomes.
This role will drive shared learning and inform future program design to facilitate improvements in the level and quality of health service delivery across NSW Health. Accordingly, it is critical that the Senior Manager liaises, engages, consults and negotiates with key internal and external stakeholders and supports all LHDs/PHNs/GPs in continuous improvement based on robust evidence on what approaches provide the largest benefits for patients, providers and the system.
