Business Analyst
Title: Business Analyst
Location: Boston
PatientPing is a venture-backed health technology company based in Boston, MA that is transforming healthcare delivery. We are building a national network that connects providers with real-time notifications when their patients receive care anywhere, so that providers can better coordinate patient care. Our customers include hundreds of health systems, physician organizations, and post-acute care providers nationally.
Our vision is bold—to build a national care coordination network that allows providers to put patients at the center of their care. Given that we’ve got a network of healthcare providers across the country, sharing real-time messaging and notifications as patients move throughout the system, we of course generate and collect a ton of interesting data. This means we need to build up a team that can help us analyze and understand that data.
