Welcome to the channel! I'm glad your finding my videos useful!

Have a upcoming internship, applied to a couple and a landed one in the healthcare industry, I have no domain knowledge but hopeful that I can learn through experience.

This was perfect for me, as a Healthcare Data Analyst.

Thank you for this video. Can't wait to jump into the links. Appreciate you, Josh!

Hey josh, I came across your KZread from a post you made in Reddit. You got a new subscriber here! So, I’m a beginner in data analytics and I’m working towards an entry level role. However, I’m kind of stuck. I wanted to get a professionals advice on how to think like an analyst? For example, im doing guided projects and they’re helpful and all but when I’m with my own dataset, I don’t know what to extract from the data. Could you give some advice on what to look for, what to extract, etc. from datasets? Or how I can improve my analytical thinking. I want to be able to apply my SQL skills along with critical-thinking/problem-solving skills. If you see this, I’d love to hear back from you. Thanks and keep up the helpful content!

Hi Amari, welcome to the channel! First, I would say that when you're starting out as a data analyst, this is a common barrier. And it's something that I struggled with too. But as you gain experience in your job, you gain that domain knowledge, and learn what works and what doesn't work. When I first started at a hospital, a C-suite person asked me to do an analysis on patient mortalities. I had no idea what I was doing; I only knew where to pull the data from. So in that case I just created a whole bunch of visualiztions in Tableau that sliced and diced the data in different ways. Like How many patients died over some span of time, or what would happen if I stratified death percentages over different service lines like Cardiac surgery, or neurosurgery. I showed it to him and he was like "Oh this is a good start. But it would be even better if we added X, Y and Z" And then we had an iterative process that eventually evolved into something that he could use. One thing you can also do is ask "what do you hope to get out of this data?", or "How will you be using this report?". Ask lots of clarifying questions. Asking those big questions often helps frame the problem a little bit and give you ideas on what you might explore. But it might feel like you're floundering a little bit at first, so just keep at it. Try to innovate and experiment. Get a mentor and see how they approach problems. And eventually their analytical methods will rub off on you too!

whats the difference between u and a Health Information Manager?

@DataWizardry

Жыл бұрын

I'm not too familiar with health information management, but I would imagine that in that role, you would have some stewardship over the proper and secure storing of healthcare records which are highly confidential. Data analytics on the other hand, which is what I do, leverages that confidential information to build reports that help clinicians, administrators, researchers, etc. figure out how to improve patient safety, how to increase efficiencies in the hospital, etc.

You dont need to have in depth knowledge about it. But it will help if you know what they are. And better yet, if you know how to use them to build queries in SQL, to wrangle patients into a report with certain diagnoses and conditions.

Can i become heathcare data analyst with associates degree?

@DataWizardry

9 ай бұрын

I would say it depends on what the associates degree is in. If it's a clinically-focused associate's degree, then it should be feasible. Otherwise, it's not impossible, but tricky. Becoming a data analyst becomes a lot easier if you have a Bachelor's degree.
