About

The Center for Sexual Pleasure and Health (CSPH), a Rhode Island based nonprofit dedicated to providing culturally inclusive, medically accurate, and pleasure informed sexuality education, therapy, and professional training, is seeking a part-time (8-10 hrs per week) Data Entry Clerk to help facilitate the transition from our paper records system to a new Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system for our Clinical Program. 
The CSPH is committed to making sex-positive counseling services more accessible to the folks who need it most. We are now in the final stages of being able to accept insurance - making our services that much more accessible to folks who can only afford mental health care through programs like Medicare and Medicaid. Setting up an EMR system is a critical next step to be able to bill to insurance. 
Data Entry Clerk will be responsible for facilitating the transition from paper records system to the new EMR system. The primary function of this position is to input information accurately into our database from paper documents. The ideal candidate will be computer savvy and a fast typist with a keen eye for detail. This position will report to the Clinical Director.

The CSPH will rely on this individual for accurate and updated data that is easily accessible through the digital database.
