Population Health Management Data Analyst

at  NHS Suffolk and North East Essex ICB

The Suffolk and North East Essex (SNEE) Integrated Care Board (ICB) is seeking to recruit a Data Analyst (Band 5, Agenda for Change) who will work within the population health management analytics team to deliver a portfolio of population health intelligence. Population Health Management (PHM) aims to improve physical and mental health outcomes, promote wellbeing and reduce health inequalities across an entire population. It supports population health by helping us understand our current health and care needs and predict what local people will need in the future. The aim is to use data to design and implement proactive models of care which will improve health and wellbeing today as well as in the future.
The SNEE Integrated Care System (ICS) is now implementing its PHM Strategy and enhancing its analytical capabilities through the development of a SNEE ICS Intelligence Function. This is an analytical collaborative, with significant investment in data science and advanced analytics capabilities, ensuring SNEE ICS is well served by a sophisticated and high performing analytical function. SNEE ICS has enhanced its infrastructure and intelligence capabilities by developing a linked, longitudinal dataset. This brings together care records across primary care, secondary care, and adult social care to enable analysts to identify cohorts of the population with risk factors or long-term health needs.
In addition, the SNEE ICB has established a cloud-based integrated data and analytics environment with modern analytical tools to enable the exploitation of the linked data capabilities. The post holder will play a supporting analytical role in developing and enabling PHM insights from data and analysis. Their analysis will include working with data from across primary, secondary and care sectors, as well as data on wider determinants of health. They will work with senior analytical managers to provide data management and data analysis to support segmentation modelling, risk stratification, analysis of full patient pathways, and identification and monitoring of health inequalities.
They will also play a supporting role in enabling stakeholders to access, interrogate and interpret insights from the ICSs population health insights platform. They will work with stakeholders across health and care as part of a virtual network of analysts in the SNEE Intelligence Function. They will use linked data to tailor the provision of care to identify people who would benefit most from proactive intervention and to tailor services to best meet population need
