Rails - Sep 2014 - [JOBS] Seeking Ruby developer for partnership on healthcare project for local 501(c)3 non-profit

Hello all,

I am a resident physician in Internal Medicine (Rush Medical Center) and I 
started a registered 501(c)3 non-profit corporation (MedReferrals) to 
connect underserved patients to healthcare. My co-founder is the CEO of 
Prominence Advisors, a healthcare IT consulting group. Our non-profit has 
received a QlikView non-profit grant for data visualization. Prominence 
advisors is providing technical backing for development of a tool to 
visualize open city data, but we need a Ruby developer to build a web 
application that allows for input of patient characteristics and output of 
community health centers accessible to that patient.

The problem: Uninsured and underserved patient are often high-utilizers of 
tertiary care, academic medical centers (Rush, Northwestern, U of C, UIC, 
Loyola) when they are extremely sick, but they lack access to care in their 
own neighborhood to stay healthy.

The two-fold solution: A web-based tool that enables case managers, social 
workers, physicians, and non-profits to search for accessible care for 
their patient. In combination with the web-based tool, is a data portal to 
show the importance of community health centers through visualization of 
City of Chicago open data.

We are a small operation, and willing to bring you on and give you the 
shine you deserve. We are well situated in the industry and have access to 
major hospitals and many physicians for validation and expansion, and 
creation of more opportunities. 

This is a perfect project for someone who is either looking to make a 
social impact, or for someone looking for a high-impact portfolio project.

We are a non-profit, and our goal is solving the problem, not generating 
revenue. That said, we have access to CMO's of many area healthcare systems 
and they are aware of the project.


Please let me know if you can help. 


Regards,

Devin D. Mehta, MD
