Healthcare Data Analysis

About this project

I want to share the details of my personal data analysis project, where I delved into real-world healthcare sample data provided by Curtis Norman. The project took me through the process of transforming raw data into meaningful insights, and I’m excited to walk you through the steps of my exploration.

The Data:

The sample dataset is provided in the format of an Excel worksheet. The data, a snapshot of real-world healthcare information, was the starting point for my analytical journey. Understanding the nuances of healthcare data is a challenge, but it’s also an opportunity to make a meaningful impact.

undefinedCreating the Database:

To unlock the full potential of the data, I decided to use Microsoft SQL Server. I began by creating a relational database, a structured foundation that would facilitate seamless data management and analysis. The process involved defining tables, establishing relationships, and ensuring data integrity, laying the groundwork for an analytical framework.

Importing Data and Building the Data Model:

The next step was to import the healthcare data from the Excel worksheet into the SQL Server database. This process is crucial for transforming raw data into a format conducive to analysis. Once the data was securely housed in the database, I set about constructing a comprehensive data model. This involved organizing and structuring the data in a way that would enable efficient querying and analysis.

undefinedWriting Multiple Views:

To enhance the flexibility of my analysis, I crafted multiple views within the SQL Server database. Views act as virtual tables, presenting data in a way that aligns with specific analytical needs. This step allowed me to tailor my approach, ensuring that I could explore different facets of the healthcare data with ease.

Connecting SQL Server Database to Power BI:

The true magic happened when I connected the SQL Server database to Power BI, a dynamic business analytics tool. This integration opened up a world of possibilities, enabling me to visually represent the data and create insightful reports. Power BI’s user-friendly interface and powerful features allowed me to translate complex data into meaningful visuals.

Building Multiple Page Reports:

With the SQL Server database seamlessly integrated into Power BI, I set about constructing a multi-page report. Each page focused on a specific aspect of the healthcare data, providing a holistic view of the information. From demographic trends to Payer Analysis, the report became a narrative, weaving together the story hidden within the numbers.
