Just wanted to let Josh’s fans know that he passed away in early November 2024. He was so happy to share his wealth of knowledge, and I’m glad folks can continue to benefit from it.
Complete freak accident, a tree fell on his car. Both him and his wife were killed 😢 I only found the channel 5 minutes ago - so tragic to learn this. RIP Josh
thank you for making you content im a current biomedical engineering student who wants to get a 2nd degree in data science and AI your videos help so much
Hello sir, I'm an ex lab technician. Now I'm learning data analysis. I've done two courses from google, Data analysis and Advanced Data Analysis. Now I'm pursuing another course, that is 'AI in Healthcare ( Stanford's)' from Coursera. What do you think sir? Will these courses helps me start my career as Healthcare Data Analyst.
I have been binge watching your videos and this is interesting, using AI in a clinical setting. I am an RN and wondering about getting certified in health care data analyst. I have zero coding experience, is it a career for me. I have also been researching medical coding. Basically, I am done with bedside nursing and looking into remote positions. Your insight is appreciated. Thanks.
It sounds like your are considering two careers: one in medical coding, the other in data analytics, correct? Medical coding is more routine. I've never been a medical coder, but I believe you are mostly looking through patient charts, and determining what medical codes they should have like ICD10, and CPT. Sort of like following a recipe. Data Analytics is more puzzle-oriented, and is as much an art as it is a science. You are often meeting with a business manager of the hospital to figure out what they need, then building something for them by programming with SQL and then graphing the data in Excel, Tableau, or PowerBi. Both positions can be remote, but the latter pays better than the former. I have tutorials on my channel if you want to get a better feel for analytics.
Hello! I found your content on tiktok and later on reddit and your “How I became a Healthcare Data Analyst” and “Healthcare Data Analyst Roadmap” posts were so inspirational because I am currently in the same situation!! 😭 I am finishing up my physiology degree (hoping to squeeze in a Stats minor in this last year), but I am now looking to switch to data analysis and it seems my next step should be finding a data related healthcare job. I was wondering if you could explain a bit more about the roles you recommended (Project assistant, program coordinator, research coordinator, data entry/abstractor) like what the roles entail and which would be most relevant to data analysis? I also completed EMT and Medical Assistant coursework, do you think it would be helpful to work a bit as either of those or just go straight for data related jobs since I am locked into data analytics at this point?
Of the jobs that you mentioned, project assistant or research coordinator/assistant can be particularly good precursor jobs for analytics if they involve SQL, Redcap, Excel, PowerBi or Tableau. So look for those keywords in the job description. The roles will vary a lot. The ones you want will involve building surveys, collecting and managing data from surveys. Working with spreadsheets. Doing data entry, etc. Usually fpr supporting research studies of quality improvement projects. If you dont feel ready to apply to data analyst positions yet, these precursor jobs can be a good launchpad. Especially if you volunteer to work on more analytical projects in your first job. Having clinical experience like being a medical assistant might help, but most of my colleagues dont have any direct clinical experience.
@@DataWizardryThank you so much for the help!! I ended up finding a couple data visualization internships which I will be applying for soon. So I’ll definitely be using your tips to learn a few tech skills and interview well 😁

@@DataWizardry Thank you. I will do further research. Appreciate your input and keep doing these videos when possible. You have many fans.
