The Sulzbacher Medical Clinic for the Homeless is looking for YOU. Volunteers are provided with the opportunity to assist patients with enrollment in free and reduced-cost medication programs offered by pharmaceutical companies; compile necessary social security, state benefit and financial documentation for enrollment in programs; assist with tobacco cessation classes; and provide patient advocacy for medication coverage and cancer care programs. Other work involves compliance with requirements of patient enrollment in pharmaceutical patient assistance programs; helping to ensure that HIPAA guidelines are upheld; helping to draft and implement pharmacy policies that comply with Federal DEA and Florida Department of Environmental Protection laws; advocacy for physicians and patients in the context of Social Security, Medicaid and other state/local benefits programs. A portion of this valuable work experience would be clerical with hands-on exposure to nonprofit administration and the legal, social and clinical aspects of healthcare. Volunteers are needed for both short-term and long-term bases.
