CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER South Carolina Primary Health Care Association (SCPHCA) The SCPHCA has been working to increase the availability of quality health care for all in South Carolina with a specific focus on low-income, uninsured, isolated, vulnerable, and special need populations since 1979. The SCPHCA is committed to assisting providers of preventive and primary care meet the unique health care needs of these populations, as well as the broader communities they serve, and reduce health disparities by providing capacity-building services and coordinating initiatives necessary to strengthen Community Health Centers (CHCs) in SC. Specific groups served include: the uninsured, those with public health insurance, chronically ill, elderly, individuals living with mental illness, those living with HIV/AIDS, children, agricultural workers and their families, homeless individuals and individuals living in rural area. These populations continue to experience barriers in accessing high quality preventive and primary health care services in the state. The SCPHCA is the unifying organization for CHCs in South Carolina. CHCs are time-tested models of community-based care. First established in 1964, CHCs are community-based, non- profit businesses that provide comprehensive, high-quality, patient-focused health care services in a culturally appropriate manner. With a focus on primary care, prevention, education, and case management, CHCs accept most health insurance plans including Medicare and Medicaid and for persons without insurance, services are provided on a sliding fee scale based on income and family size.AREA: Finance GRADE: 38E TERM OF EMPLOYMENT: Full-Time SALARY RANGE: $100,823 – $114,570 (DOE) I.
