We are looking for a Healthcare Data Analyst to join our team and support data-driven decision-making in the healthcare sector. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in data analysis, statistics, and healthcare systems. You will be responsible for collecting, processing, and analyzing large datasets to identify trends, improve patient care, and optimize operational efficiency.
As a Healthcare Data Analyst, you will work closely with clinical teams, administrators, and IT professionals to ensure that data is accurate, accessible, and actionable. You will use tools such as SQL, Python, R, and data visualization platforms like Tableau or Power BI to generate insights and reports. Your work will directly impact patient outcomes, resource allocation, and strategic planning.
Key responsibilities include developing and maintaining dashboards, performing statistical analyses, and creating predictive models to forecast healthcare trends. You will also be expected to ensure compliance with healthcare regulations such as HIPAA and maintain data security and privacy standards.
This role requires excellent communication skills, as you will need to present complex data findings to non-technical stakeholders. A strong understanding of healthcare terminology, workflows, and data standards (e.g., ICD-10, CPT codes) is essential.
We are looking for someone who is detail-oriented, analytical, and passionate about using data to make a difference in healthcare. If you thrive in a collaborative environment and are eager to contribute to meaningful projects that improve lives, we encourage you to apply.
