Abstract

INTRODUCTION: The move from a reactive model of care which treats conditions when they arise to a proactive model which intervenes early to prevent adverse healthcare events will benefit from advances in the predictive capabilities of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. This paper investigates the ability of a Deep Learning (DL) approach to predict future disease diagnosis from Electronic Health Records (EHR) for the purposes of Population Health Management.
