Centene Corporation Alabama, USA

Data Analyst Jan 2024 – Present

• Consolidated over 12 million Medicaid and Medicare claim, encounter, and pharmacy records from SQL Server and Snowflake into a single analytical dataset, achieving 99.8% data accuracy through rigorous validation.

• Cleaned and standardized large-scale healthcare datasets using Python (pandas, NumPy) to resolve missing values, normalize diagnosis/procedure codes, and align provider identifiers, reducing preparation time by 35%.

• Designed SQL-based transformation logic to create patient-level timelines, enabling accurate sequencing of claims, pharmacy fills, and care management events for predictive modeling.

• Developed over 25 patient risk indicators, including 90-day readmission counts, chronic disease scores, emergency visit frequency, and medication adherence metrics, significantly improving model input quality.

• Collaborated with data science teams to train and validate XGBoost and LightGBM models, achieving an AUC of 0.87 for predicting 7, 14, and 30-day unplanned readmissions.

• Utilized SHAP (SHapley Additive Explanations) to identify key readmission drivers such as uncontrolled diabetes, recent ER visits, and multiple chronic conditions, translating results into actionable insights for clinical staff.

• Integrated Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) data including housing instability, food insecurity, and transportation gaps into the scoring pipeline, increasing high-risk patient identification recall by 12%.

• Automated daily ETL workflows using SSIS and SQL stored procedures to refresh risk scores and deliver them to the care coordination platform within two hours of claim ingestion, enabling same-day outreach.

• Designed interactive Tableau dashboards displaying patient risk rankings, regional heat maps, and top contributing factors, allowing care managers to target 28% more high-risk members without additional staffing.

• Tracked program impact through KPI monitoring in Tableau and Excel, demonstrating a 6.5% reduction in 30-day readmissions in pilot regions and providing ROI metrics to executive leadership.

• Created comprehensive data dictionaries, transformation documentation, and audit-ready artifacts to maintain compliance with NCQA and CMS quality reporting standards.

Druva Software India

Data Analyst Oct 2020 – Mar 2023
