Predicting Readmissions (and other outcomes) Doesn’t Take a PhD John Showalter, MD MSIS Chief Health Information Officer University of Mississippi Medical Center November 12, 2013

Section name here Objectives  Discuss why advanced mathematical modeling is not always superior to straight-forward calculations.  Describe how readily available administrative data can be used to predict risk for readmission at your institution.  Explain certainty factor analysis and how it can be applied to healthcare analytics

Section name here Punch-line  You can predict readmissions: – At the time of admission – With data you already have – Without advanced analytics software

Section name here MYCIN  Computer program that used a rule based system to suggest treatment for serious infections  Developed in the early 1970s  Outperformed specialists in treatment selection  Based on a novel method of handling uncertainty in decision making (Certainty Factors)

Section name here Certainty Factors  Designed to handle dependency between variables  Based on individual estimates of certainty  Scale: -100 (absolute certainty of no event) to 100 (absolute certainty of event)  Calculates the strength of a belief not a probability  Widely used in rule-based computer programs for a short period

Section name here Fall of Certainty Factors  Mathematically proven to be inferior to advanced conditional probabilistic models – Except for simple belief calculations  Development of Belief Networks for both simple and advanced belief calculations  Only allows forward reasoning  Infrequently used and even more infrequently mentioned in the last 20 years

Section name here Why use Certainty Factors in healthcare?  Almost all variables are dependent – Weight effects diabetes risk – Age effects heart attack risk – Treatments effect outcomes  It is designed for rule based logic systems – Almost all/if not all clinical decision support systems are rule-based systems  The math is straight-forward and can be handled in the vast majority of EHRs

Section name here Necessary Modifications to Certainty Factors  Only explore the certainty of the event occurring (i.e. 0 – 100)  Calculate Certainty Factors based on rates since data is readily available  Correlate strength of belief (Certainty Factor)with risk stratification of potential event

Section name here Predicting Readmission Study  Create a method of predicting readmissions at the time of admission  Use readily available administrative data  Compare modified certainty factor analysis to advanced machine learning algorithms  6,448 discharges for the Internal Medicine Service  30 day readmissions

Section name here Predicting Readmission Study  Used four administrative variables – Number of diagnoses bill in 1 year prior to admission – Boolean (Y/N) Hospital admission within 1 year prior to current admission ED visit within 1 year prior to current admission Outpatient clinic visit within 1 year prior to current admission  Compared Several Predictive Model – Certainty Factors – Bayesian Network – 2 Artificial Neural Networks – Support Vector Machine
