METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND APPARATUSES FOR PREDICTING THE RISK OF HOSPITALIZATION

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for improved predictive analytics, such as patient scoring and hospitalization prediction, as described herein. An ensemble classifier may be implemented to predict a hospitalization event for a patient based on healthcare records and demographic information associated with the patient. The ensemble classifier may represent a plurality of machine learning models/classifiers. The prediction generated by the ensemble classifier may be indicative or a range or likelihood that the patient will, or will not, experience a hospitalization event.
