Dr Luisamanda Selle Arocha
Health analyst
she/her
I am a member of LCP’s Health Analytics team. I am a medical doctor and population health sciences expert with a strong background in public health, occupational health, and clinical medicine. I recently completed an MPhil in Population Health Sciences at the University of Cambridge and hold a Doctor of Medicine degree from the Central University of Venezuela.
Over the past six months, I have been studying the trends of cancer drug prescriptions in the UK. This analysis has provided unique insights into how doctors are managing and treating cancer patients.
My previous clinical roles have included medical doctor and occupational health assistant in Peru, where I contributed to the care, monitoring and contact tracing of Covid-19 patients in corporate environments during the pandemic. I have also served as a primary healthcare medical doctor at the Peruvian Ministry of Health, and as a primary healthcare medical doctor in Caracas, Venezuela, where I administered emergency triage and treatment for incoming patients. My clinical expertise spans diverse acute and chronic conditions, palliative care and emergency triage. I also have a strong foundation in academic research and teaching, having taught courses on preventive and occupational health, as well as serving as a guest speaker on public health and epidemiology at the Central University of Venezuela.
LCP have a practical way of looking at things and cut through the noise on essential issues.
Our latest thinking
Our health analytics approach leverages the increasing availability of data and our cutting-edge modelling approaches to put timely actionable data in the hands of key stakeholders.
We integrate a wealth of health and health-related datasets and develop bespoke interactive visualisations to make it accessible and rapid for clients to glean insights across a range of areas.
Supporting our clients to achieve equitable health outcomes is a golden thread throughout our work. We combine our expertise to translate evidence into change and apply population health analytics to help reduce inequalities in health and health outcomes.
Multimorbidity, living with two or more conditions is one of the biggest challenges facing patients and health systems today. We leverage real world datasets and innovative approaches to generate evidence that identifies patient groups with the greatest unmet needs in a more holistic manner that reflects the drivers of ill health.
We apply scientific rigour to evaluate the economic and clinical value of healthcare interventions using both traditional and innovative perspectives and methods.
