Abstract:
The study objective was to (1) develop a statistical model that creates a novel patient engagement score (PES) from electronic medical records (EMR) and health claim data, and (2) validate this developed score using health-related outcomes and charges of patients with multiple chronic conditions (MCCs). This study used 2014-16 EMR and health claim data of patients with MCCs from Sanford Health. Patient engagement score was created based on selected patients' engagement behaviors using Gaussian finite mixture model. The PES was validated using multiple logistic and linear regression analyses to examine the associations between the PES and health-related outcomes, and hospital charges, respectively. Patient engagement score was generated from 5095 patient records and included low, medium, and high levels of patient engagement. The PES was a significant predictor for low-density lipoprotein, emergency department visit, hemoglobin A1c, estimated glomerular filtration rate, hospitalization, and hospital charge. The PES derived from patient behaviors recorded in EMR and health claim data can potentially serve as a patient engagement measure. Further study is needed to refine and validate the newly developed score.
