So glad I found a Healthcare Data Analyst youtuber! Most of the creators I follow make Data Analyst videos from a more broad perspective. Nowadays you can't just be a general "data analyst", you need some sort of specialization. Trying to leverage my clinical background and transition into healthcare analytics, these videos are very insightful into the industry. Thanks again Josh!
This video was one of the most helpful breakdowns of a data analyst position I've ever seen. I really appreciate all of the visuals and real world examples you used. Just subscribed!
What an incredible presentation... as a Project Manager working in a non-health environment, this would be enough for me to look into also becoming a data analyst within the healthcare sector.
Wow!! You do A LOT of work, which is good, I love it. I would love to also delve into healthcare as a Data Analyst.. Looking out for more videos from you on how and certain processes involved. Thank you for this
Thanks for sharing your work. I finished the Google Data Analytics course in December and I'm trying to find healthcare related projects because that's the area I'd like to get into.
Glad you liked it, and that you're considering healthcare! I have a tutorial on Pareto charts that might be helpful which explores top causes of death by country. This might be useful for portfolio building. Also, if you're attempting to get into healthcare, I would highly recommend googling IHI open school; it's a free series of lessons that teaches about problems in health care, and how to improve patient safety. It's a great, and quick way to build up some knowledge about the industry. It also has some good analytics gems in it as well.
@@DataWizardry Thanks for this info. I saw the title of that video but had no clue what Pareto was - now I do. I'm going to watch it now. I'll also look into IHI open school. Thanks again for the tips.
Nice! Here's another good article: "A new, evidence-based estimate of patient harms associated with hospital care." - John T James. They update some of the numbers found in "to err is human"
Yes, it can be tricky. I find that the best places to find open positions that do not initially require epic certification tend to be large hospital systems. Typically, they have lots of funding to sponsor new hires in their training.
Great information . Currently I am working as a medical coder and want to head towards healthcare data analyst field but I am confused from where should I start and learn in depth ,can you please guide me on that
Sure! I have a couple of videos on my channel (in case you haven't seen these yet) about becoming a data analyst, so I'd encourage you to start there if you haven't already. For starters, I'd say focus on building your hard skills first. Try learning Excel, SQL, and Tableau in that order. There's lots of free data online you can practice with, like Kaggle.com. for SQL, you can learn that really quickly via a website called SQLZoo Also, if you have the opportunity through your current work, see if it's possible to get involved in a mentorship program with a data analyst to learn more. You could also volunteer for projects involving working with excel spreadsheets or creating graphs; then list those on your resume. If you can work with the tools I mentioned, and you have experience on the job, then you might already qualify to be a data analyst in the Healthcare field, especially given that you are already in the industry and know about things like CPT codes and ICD10 codes. One last thing I would recommend is googling IHI open school. They have some free video lessons and a certification program you can take to build even more industry knowledge. I hope that's helpful! I'll probably do more analytics videos in the future that are more healthcare focused.
Hi thank you so much for this, it’s very informative and I learned quite a lot of what you touched on regarding healthcare quality and databases (much less) in my Health Information Management degree. I was actually a little surprised and encouraged! I’m interested in a healthcare data analyst job and I was wondering how stressful you feel your job is overall? Thank you!!
It's stressful when you're first starting out, because you're new, eager to prove yourself, and it feels like the stakes are higher than they really are. But that adrenaline rush wears off after several months or so once you learn the ins and outs of the job, and adapt to the routine of data requests. For me personally, starting out in my first job, it was scary because I was the only data analyst in my department, and had to learn things pretty quickly. Then I got used to it, and my stress level dropped. It dropped even more when I leveraged that position after 2 years to get a higher paying job with a team of 4 data analysts. For the best experience when you start out, I would recommend applying to a large healthcare organization with lots of data analytics team members. They can mentor you, or help you when you get stuck
Great video! Keep up the good work. I was wondering if you have already covered the topic of salary in one of your videos? Specifically, how do data analyst salaries in the healthcare industry compare to other industries? Is there big variation within the healthcare industry, depending on if you work in pharma, a hospital, etc.? Thanks again for the great content!
No worries! For clinical analytics, I recall the us average being 80k vs 70k for general data analysts. However, I couldn't find data that specifically broke down the averages by sub-industry, like biopharma, insurance, government/state health organizations, etc. So I'll be on the lookout for those!
Hi Pratikshya, as far as Microsoft products go I think PowerBI is becoming more utilized for data viz over SSRS. But I suppose you could build dashboards in SSRS like Tableau and PowerBI.
Hi, thanks for sharing your experience. I have a Bachelor Degree in Healthcare Management and Just finished a certification in Data Analysis in Healthcare. what is your advise on job hunting.
Try to network as much as you can. Right now, it's tricky to get a job anywhere as a data analyst. I have found networking to be the most effective way to land a job when the market is rough.
Hi, really helpful video! I'm a biochemistry graduate and am interested in getting into healthcare data analytics as a career. I'm from the UK and would really like to live and work in different countries (including USA), do you know if this job would be easy to satisfy visa requirements or get sponsorship for? Is it common to have people from many different countries in these teams? Thanks
Good question! I have definitely met folks who were born and raised in different countries that decided to work in analytics in the US. As far as how difficult it is to get that visa sponsorship, though, am not sure.
I haven’t the degree of computer science or mathematics. I had master in nursing ( Clinical Management) and pharmacy assistant certification only. What course should I take to get Health care data analytic ? Thank you so much.
Sounds like you already have a good amount of domain knowledge. So you might just need to brush up on SQL, Excel and a data viz tool like Tableau or PowerBI. If you want to learn more about possible paths into data analytics, you could check out this video: ruclips.net/video/ime7OBlERiM/видео.html If you feel like you would like to take a healthcare-focused analytics class, I have one that I'm working on that I hope to release by the end of the year: datawizardry.academy/accelerator/
@@DataWizardry thank you for your reply. I am studying a Google Data Analytics Professional Certificate now. I want to get more certifications and more knowledge to find a job. I really hope that I would understand more information how to be health care data analytic. I am looking forward to hearing from your course.
Hey Good Morning, So I brought up in the India, Mumbai and I have currently Graduate from the life science and I have skills Like Python program from the Course work and I have complete the python developer from the udemy and the From my college I have complete the Data Visualization In Tableau and sir I have complete 3 month course on the Bioinformatics : Algorithm and Application from IIT Madars and doing the data Analyst from the Skills India it will be okay for the Me looking job in the Data analyst and in health care analyst
Hey! If you could pls suggest between Healthcare data analyst and MHA which would you say has more growth , salary and is in more demand now days !? TIA.
MHA is more focused on leadership and managent of healthcare service lines (like radiology, cardiology, oncology, etc.), or consulting. The starting pay will be very similar to data analytics. Growth stages are very different. In analytics, you typically go from data analyst to senior, and sometimes lead analyst or principal analyst. You could also get into other fields like data engineering, data science. Could become a manager or director of analytics. Etc. Whereas in MHA, you might start as a service line manager, then a senior manager / director, eventually making your way to administrator or even c-suite (ceo, cmo, cto,etc.). Pay potential is this much higher if you have the right leadership mindset. As far as demand, I think theres going to be a huge demand for data analysts in the coming years. Though Its rough for first timers to get in without some experience and networking. Once you do get that experience, you can get hired pretty quickly. With MHA, its easier to get a job because the degree is at a masters level and the progams tend to set you up with internships, networking connections. Etc. But again, the work is very different than analytics and is more focused on management.
If youre interested in working as a data analyst, in a hospital, one thing you can do is go to a website called IHI. They have free online videos called IHI open school, that will give you some industry knowledge about patient safety. That should be a good start. I'll also be doing more videos on this subject, so stay tuned!
Hello! Welcome to my channel. This will vary depending on where you work and in what type of healthcare organization. With data analysts working specifically in hospitals, the US average is $80.5/yr, compared to data analysts across all industries averaging $70.4k/yr. In one of my videos, I talk about how you can make even more if you earn certain certifications: ruclips.net/video/WZIZ367hYFs/видео.html Stay tuned for a future video where I talk about how much I make 🙂

Thank you so much for this! We just read To Err is Human last semester
Nice! Here's another good article:
"A new, evidence-based estimate of patient harms associated with hospital care." - John T James.
They update some of the numbers found in "to err is human"
Really interesting and well organized. Thank you!
So much interested in health care data
Super informative! I see a lot of healthcare anakysts needing to be epic certified and i get why now..wish they would offer it on the job
Yes, it can be tricky.
I find that the best places to find open positions that do not initially require epic certification tend to be large hospital systems. Typically, they have lots of funding to sponsor new hires in their training.
Yes, I figure. I'm trying to get in, but the job market sucks right now haha 😄
Really great detailed video on healthcare

How do you get epic certified
SSRS can also be used for making reports just like tableau?
