Mast Analytics Information

Mast Analytics was co-founded by Cristina Mannie and Stefan Strydom. We are a team passionate about combining the disciplines of health, artificial intelligence and analytics to improve public health which connects us all. We refer to public health science in its true and broadest sense, to include issues related to health policy, public education and the protection of health, as well as the prevention, detection and treatment of disease, and the associated social, behavioural and environmental determinants of health. Together we have 20 years’ experience performing advanced healthcare analytics including assessing the health status of populations and identifying individuals at risk of various healthcare events, developing risk stratification models, identifying significant risk factors to inform the design of effective initiatives (such as care management programmes or alternative payment models), and evaluating programmes or measuring the outcomes of the interventions implemented. During this time, we have developed award-winning risk stratification models for care-management and we have been acknowledged locally and abroad for our contribution to designing innovative solutions. With our combined expertise across sectors and disciplines – and a commitment to constantly pushing the boundaries using data science – we take a holistic and cutting-edge approach towards analysing and unlocking value from vast volumes of data. This enables us to design innovative and impactful data-driven solutions for clients, which we deliver in the form of user-friendly applications and tools. We have extensive experience in implementing and assessing the impact of these solutions in partnership with our clients.
