Does an automated machine learning score improve the prediction of hospital readmissions compared to commonly used readmission scores?
Machine learning models may offer superior predictive accuracy for hospital readmissions compared to standard clinical scores.
Among 3 hospitals in different settings, an automated machine learning score better predicted readmissions than commonly used readmission scores. More efficiently targeting patients at higher risk of readmission may be the first step toward potentially preventing readmissions.
