<p>Founded in 1977 as the Senior Care Action Network, SCAN began with a simple but radical idea: that older adults deserve to stay healthy and independent. That belief was championed by a group of community activists we still honor today as the “12 Angry Seniors.” Their mission continues to guide everything we do.</p><p>Today, SCAN is a nonprofit health organization serving more than 500,000 people across Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, and Washington, with over $8 billion in annual revenue. With nearly five decades of experience, we have built a distinctive, values-driven platform dedicated to improving care for older adults.</p><p>Our work spans Medicare Advantage, fully integrated care models, primary care, care for the most medically and socially complex populations, and next-generation care delivery models. Across all of this, we are united by a shared commitment: combining compassion with discipline, innovation with stewardship, and growth with integrity.</p><p>At SCAN, we believe scale should strengthen—not dilute—our mission. We are building the future of care for older adults, grounded in purpose, accountability, and respect for the people and communities we serve.</p><p><b>The Job</b></p><p>The Manager, Health Policy sits on the Policy, Government Affairs (PGA) team and researches, tracks,<br>and analyzes federal and state legislative and regulatory health policy issues, with a focus on policy<br>areas of importance, such as Medicare Advantage, Part D, duals integration, Medicaid payment policy,<br>health equity, and other relevant issues.
