DataHour: Diabetic Patients’ Readmission Prediction using ML

About the Event

Hospital readmission along with medical expenses is a common add-on expense in the budget list nowadays, as it is directly considered as an important indicator to predict "Quality of care". Diabetes is one of the chronic diseases which is directly associated with increased risk of hospital readmission. Hospital readmission is a high-priority health care quality measure and target for cost reduction, particularly within 30 days of discharge. Reducing readmission rates among patients with diabetes has the potential to greatly reduce health care costs while simultaneously improving care.

In this DataHour, Mohit  will walk you through the the process of predicting diabetic patients’ readmission starting from identifying the factors that lead to the high readmission rate of diabetic patients within 30 days post discharge and correspondingly to predict the high-risk diabetic-patients who are most likely to get readmitted within 30 days using the techniques including Exploratory Data Analysis, Missing value treatment, Feature Extraction, Feature selection, Class imbalance treatment and Hyperparameter tuning so that the quality of care can be improved along with improved patient's experience, health of the population and reduce costs by lowering readmission rates. Also, to identify the medicines that are the most effective in treating diabetes.
