Cross-Site Predictions of Readmission After Psychiatric Hospitalization With Mood or Psychotic Disorders: Retrospective Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Patients with mood or psychotic disorders experience high rates of unplanned hospital readmissions. Predicting the likelihood of readmission can guide discharge decisions and optimize patient care.

Objective

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the predictive power of structured variables from electronic health records for all-cause readmission across multiple sites within the Mass General Brigham health system and to assess the transportability of prediction models between sites.

Methods

This retrospective, multisite study analyzed structured variables from electronic health records separately for each site to develop in-site prediction models. The transportability of these models was evaluated by applying them across different sites. Predictive perfor
