As a Health Data Analyst at VitalStream Health, you will be at the intersection of medicine and mathematics. This is a 100% remote position designed for a professional who thrives on uncovering trends within electronic health records (EHR) and clinical trial data. You won’t just be crunching numbers; you will be storytelling with data to help clinicians make better decisions and optimize hospital efficiency.

Your work will directly contribute to reducing patient readmission rates and improving the overall quality of care across our network of partner clinics.

Salary Range

$85,000 – $120,000 USD per year (Depending on experience and certifications)

Key Responsibilities

Data Mining & Synthesis

You will extract large datasets from various healthcare databases using advanced SQL queries, ensuring data integrity and cleaning “noisy” clinical data to maintain a high standard of accuracy.

Insight Generation

Transform raw healthcare metrics into intuitive visualizations using tools like Tableau or Power BI. You will identify key performance indicators (KPIs) that highlight gaps in patient care and suggest data-driven interventions.

Regulatory Compliance

Ensure all data handling processes strictly adhere to HIPAA regulations and other healthcare privacy laws. You will be responsible for maintaining the security and anonymity of patient information during all stages of analysis.

Requirements

We are looking for a candidate who possesses a blend of technical prowess and a passion for healthcare. To be successful in this remote role, you should have:

• Education: A Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Health Informatics, Statistics, Data Science, or a related field.

• Experience: At least 3 years of experience analyzing clinical or operational healthcare data.
• Remote Proficiency: Proven ability to manage your time effectively in a work-from-home environment and communicate clearly via Slack, Zoom, and Jira.
