Research on prediction method for pivotal indicator of hospital medical quality using decision tree

Abstract

Indicators of medical quality is the main basis of medical quality evaluation, predictive analyzing the indicators by using data mining technology, we can find and solve the problems of hospital quality management more timely. The study, basing on the medical homepage records, analyzes the key indicators of the hospital medical quality by decision tree C4.5 algorithm. Decision tree is a prediction model which can assist hospital to make related decision on medical quality management issues. By using decision tree C4.5 algorithm with appropriate modification, a high quality model of decision tree can be made. It can not only do the statistic of medical quality indicators, but also predict the indicators with high relative accuracy to improve hospital's medical quality management.
