What You Need to Know
Healthcare data analysts typically earn between $70,000 and $105,000 per year. The field is growing rapidly driven by the digitization of health records, value-based care models, and the explosion of clinical data. Key skills include SQL, Excel, and familiarity with healthcare data standards like HL7 and FHIR. Understanding HIPAA compliance is essential — most healthcare employers require it. Common data sources include electronic health records (EHR), claims databases, patient registries, and clinical trial data. Analysts in this space often work with tools like SAS, R, or Python for statistical analysis, alongside visualization platforms. The pharma and biotech subsectors tend to pay at the top of the range and frequently offer strong benefits packages.
