This position works closely with analytics teams to transform complex healthcare data into meaningful insights that support affordability, transparency, health equity, and healthcare improvement efforts across Colorado.

This Health Care Data Analyst role fits best as a non-phone position.

The position also provides opportunities to develop expertise in healthcare data standards, regulatory requirements, coding systems, and advanced analytics methodologies.

Successful candidates possess strong analytical thinking skills, SQL experience, data validation knowledge, reporting abilities, organizational skills, and a desire to learn healthcare analytics concepts. Familiarity with healthcare claims data, Tableau, Python, SAS, R, ICD coding systems, CPT codes, and healthcare regulations may provide additional advantages.

CIVHC offers a comprehensive benefits package that includes retirement plans, healthcare coverage, paid time off, professional development opportunities, wellness programs, flexible work arrangements, and career growth opportunities.

Overall, this position is ideal for professionals who enjoy data analysis, reporting, healthcare analytics, problem solving, data quality improvement, and transforming complex information into actionable insights.
