Pratik Maharjan
@pratikmaharjan012
Principal Data Analyst specializing in US healthcare analytics, claims, and AI-assisted data pipelines.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Principal Data Analyst with 7+ years in US Healthcare—claims processing, payment integrity, ROI analytics, and HEDIS/Risk Adjustment. I translate complex business requirements into scalable SQL and data pipeline solutions, with a growing focus on agentic workflows and AI-assisted development.
In my current role at Maitri Services, I author BRDs and source-to-target mappings for claims pipelines, payment integrity, and ROI analytics. I define schemas, transformation specs, business rules, and acceptance criteria, then develop and validate SQL across large claims datasets to drive quality and alignment.
I’ve also led technical BA work at Techkraft Inc (Abacus Insights), including ownership across end-to-end lifecycles for US Healthcare Risk Adjustment and HEDIS engagements. I led a team of Technical BAs, partnered with engineering to refine data processing workflows, and mentored junior analysts while resolving client and development issues.
Earlier, at Cedar Gate Technology and Deerwalk Inc, I worked across healthcare claims processing, data validation frameworks, and production troubleshooting. I’ve built automation with Python/S3, helped migrate legacy systems, and consistently focused on turning data into actionable insights that improve accuracy, efficiency, and delivery.
