Sequential pattern mining has been a popular data mining technique for extracting useful information from large databases and has successfully been used for numerous industrial and commercial problems. This paper presents a new mathematical modelling

A patient with frequent past readmissions may have an increased risk of future readmission. The principal objective of this paper was to determine the risk of readmission, given individual patient's history of readmissions. First, we develop a modell

A frequently chosen time window in defining readmission is 28 days after discharge. Yet in the literature, shorter and longer periods such as 14 days or 90-180 days have also been suggested. In this paper, we develop a modeling approach that systemat

In the UK, the split between opposition and supporters views of the National Health Service (NHS) performance ratings system is growing. Objective argument and consensus would be facilitated if a methodology was developed which showed the cause and e

This paper describes the construction of a graphical decision tool to aid placement decisions of a multidisciplinary review panel for admissions to long-term care in a London borough in the UK. First we construct a prediction model of placement decis

We have previously used Markov models to describe movements of patients between hospital states; these may be actual or virtual and described by a phase-type distribution. Here we extend this approach to a Markov reward model for a healthcare system

Understanding the pattern of length of stay in institutional long-term care has important practical implications in the management of long-term care. Furthermore, residents' attributes are believed to have significant effects on these patterns. In th

SummaryThe paper develops a Markov model in continuous time for the length of stay of elderly people moving within and between residential home care and nursing home care. A procedure to determine the structure of the model and to estimate parameters

This article uses a modelling approach to consider the risky unintended consequences of fining local authorities for failing to provide intermediate care, made law under the 2003 Community Care (Delayed Discharges) Act.
