The COVID-19 pandemic has amplified the significance of HHC services, offering a crucial alternative for patients and the elderly to follow quarantine protocols while receiving essential healthcare at home. Consequently, HHC companies must align their planning strategies with the World Health Organization (WHO) health guidelines. This research introduces a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) model tailored for home healthcare services during COVID-19, aiming to ensure strict adherence to quarantine protocols while enhancing service efficiency and quality. The proposed vehicle routing problem with pickup/delivery and time window formulation incorporates critical elements such as patient and caregiver classification, work and break regulations adherence, workload balancing, and multi-depot capabilities. The model addresses uncertain demand and service times through a stochastic programming approach to enhance practicality. K-means clustering is applied to streamline scenarios, with a sensitivity analysis determining the optimal number of clusters. Additionally, measures intrinsic to stochastic programming, such as the Expected Value of Perfect Information (EVPI) and Value of Stochastic Solution (VSS), are computed for comprehensive analysis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":73222,"journal":{"name":"Healthcare analytics (New York, N.Y.)","volume":"6 ","pages":"Article 100356"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772442524000583/pdfft?md5=6ba4d6452530c556eb5e1f481a1aa965&pid=1-s2.0-S2772442524000583-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141594444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Consequently, considerable research is devoted to controlling healthcare costs. Many efforts are underway to improve medical price transparency. Price transparency will help patients become better informed, allowing them to shop for care they can afford, eventually leading to efficiency in healthcare markets. This first requires medical pricing data to be made available publicly. Since the raw pricing data can be large and cover multiple conditions, it is necessary to provide an engine to process the data to facilitate its usage and understanding. We recommend creating computational models that predict healthcare costs for various patient conditions and demographics. Patients and providers can interrogate the underlying data to understand the variation of healthcare costs concerning medical conditions and demographic variables of interest, including age. We demonstrate our approach by creating predictive models using recent machine learning techniques. We analyzed anonymous patient data from the New York State Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System, consisting of 2.34 million records from 2019. We built models to predict costs from over two dozen patient variables, including diagnosis codes, severity of illness, age, and other demographic variables. We investigated three models: regression, decision trees, and random forests. These models are explainable. We analyzed features to determine those that were predictive of total costs. We determined that the diagnosis code, severity of illness, and length of stay were good predictors of total costs, whereas race and gender are not useful in predicting total costs. We obtained the best performance using a catboost regressor, which yielded an R2 score of 0.85, better than the values reported in the literature.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":73222,"journal":{"name":"Healthcare analytics (New York, N.Y.)","volume":"6 ","pages":"Article 100351"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772442524000534/pdfft?md5=627ca7cad502b1be2f4f25cc21192d35&pid=1-s2.0-S2772442524000534-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141541941","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Early identification of breast cancer might drastically decrease patient mortality and greatly improve the chance of an effective treatment. In modern times, machine learning models have become crucial for classifying cancer and strengthening both the accuracy and efficiency of diagnostic and medical treatment strategies. Therefore, this study is focused on early detection of breast cancer using a variety of machine learning algorithms and desires to identify the most effective feature selection process with an amalgamated dataset. Initially, we evaluated five traditional models and two meta-models on separate datasets. To find the most valuable features, the study used the Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) as well as SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) selection methods and analyzed them through a wide range of performance regulations. Additionally, we applied these models to the combined dataset and observed that the mergeddataset was significantly beneficial for breast cancer diagnosis. After analyzing the feature selection strategies, it was demonstrated that the majority of models performed more accurately when utilizing SHAP methodologies. Notably, three traditional models and two meta-classifiers obtained an accuracy of 99.82%, demonstrating superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods. This advancement holds a crucial role as it lays the foundation for refining diagnostic tools and enhancing the progression of medical science in this field.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":73222,"journal":{"name":"Healthcare analytics (New York, N.Y.)","volume":"6 ","pages":"Article 100353"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772442524000558/pdfft?md5=86753ff6e5dca7c27f447a4a08fa5813&pid=1-s2.0-S2772442524000558-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141484808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
