Hi Thirumugam, Health care analytics gain more importance in recent days due to heavy competition and stipulation to quality standards. Many hospital still continue to keep manual registers to record various quality parameters stipulated by NABH or other authorities despite the fact that they use Hospital Information Systems for the day-to-day operation. The software mainly takes care of general operational area in IP/OP/Lab and Pharmacy. It collects data related to revenue, other statistical information, but not focused on data related to quality of treatment or services. I think you are in right time on thinking of entering into health care analytics sector. Fortunately there are many tools available today without spending much time in learning the technicalities in analytics. The functional skills are most important, which is already acquired by you.
