Healthcare Data Analyst Careers #dataanalyst

Health insurance companies - especially in the US - have many analytics career options.

Data analysts working in these types of roles can analyze everything from broad information on what services and medications are being billed most for different segments of their customers to individual healthcare data like patient visits and risks.

Depening on the specific role, you may need a background (work / education) in healthcare in a more healthcare data analytics focused role. Other data analyst jobs at insurance companies are similar to any other industry and won't require the additional healthcare knowledge.

There are plenty of other niches of data analytics jobs to choose from as you build your data analyst career.

It's so odd to me. I often thought of "consulting" or "data analytics" as bullsht jobs, especially since I do direct patient care. But as I get older and the job is harder on me physically, I wonder of data analytics would be a good career change.

What's the salary range? Beyond an HIM degree, what do you need to know to pass the exam and do the job, and where do you learn this information?

[jicalzad]

this is no doubt a stable/lucrative career, but as you mentioned, there are definitely ethical concerns trying to help out health insurance companies optimize their product.
