Work
-- The programs we support are very interesting and in the long run will improve the implementation and assessment of quality improvement initiatives nationwide.
-- I have worked in healthcare for over 15 years, and love the fact that each and every day I still learn something new.

Compensation and benefits are competitive
Cons
Given the contract nature of the work and the various other support contractors with whom we work to support quality programs, it can be challenging to progress through the review/approval/publication process as quickly as one would hope. This is not a reflection on HSAG as a company but rather the nature of the contract environment in which we work.
