Children's Special Health Care Services - Data Visualization and Analysis

Location

Hager-Lubbers Exhibition Hall

Description

PURPOSE: This poster exhibits my projects while working for Priority Health as a data analyst. These projects included creating a Tableau dashboard that displays information for the Children’s Special Health Care Service (CSHCS) for the Care Managers and a data analysis on the Transition of Care (TOC) program for CSHCS members. This internship provides real-world experience working with data and programming languages not widely available in this degree path. CHALLENGE: These projects involved pulling and cleaning data from Priority Health, creating a Tableau dashboard from scratch, and doing data visualizations/analysis in R. EXPERIENCE: The internship provided me with the experience of working with large, real-world data sets. This internship also taught me how to use SQL and Tableau while sharpening my skills in R. OUTCOME: The Tableau dashboard allows the Care Managers to understand their population better. It will also help ensure all CSHCS members receive the care they need. The analysis helped to show some trends in the CSHCS population, which can help to improve the care they receive. IMPACT: My internship showed me what it was like to work with data that would not have been available at Grand Valley. It also showed me what it would be like to work in a consulting role while giving me experience in Tableau and SQL, which are popular in the workforce but not widely used in our biostatistics program. Being able to help these CHSCH members was immensely rewarding and cemented my goal of wanting to help people in future positions.
