This study validated claims-based algorithms for identifying thyroid eye disease (TED). Machine learning models offer flexibility, allowing tailored performance for TED case identification in real-world data.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Health Informatics
  • Data Science

Background:

  • Thyroid eye disease (TED) identification in claims data is challenging.
  • Existing rule-based algorithms have limitations in balancing sensitivity and specificity.
  • Real-world data offers potential for improved case identification methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To validate claims-based algorithms for identifying thyroid eye disease (TED) cases.
  • To assess if machine learning can enhance TED case identification accuracy.
  • To compare the performance of rule-based and machine learning approaches.

Main Methods:

  • Evaluated six rule-based algorithms using linked real-world data (Komodo Health, IRIS Registry).
  • Developed supervised machine learning models utilizing demographic, diagnostic, procedural, and medication data.

  • Employed recursive feature elimination and cross-validation for model development and performance assessment.

    • Main Results:

    • Rule-based algorithms showed a trade-off between sensitivity and specificity.
    • Algorithm 6 improved sensitivity while maintaining high specificity and positive predictive value (PPV).
    • Machine learning models demonstrated flexibility, allowing performance adjustment for different research needs, with some models outperforming rule-based approaches.

    Conclusions:

    • Both rule-based and machine learning methods can improve TED case identification in claims data.
    • Machine learning offers enhanced flexibility for tailoring performance to specific research objectives.
    • No single method consistently outperformed others across all metrics, highlighting the value of both approaches.
