• Abstract: Patient length of stay (LoS) is a critical metric for evaluating the efficacy of hospital management. The primary objectives encompass to improve efficiency and reduce costs while enhancing patient outcomes and hospital capacity within the patient journey. By seamlessly merging data-driven techniques with simulation methodologies, the study proposes an all-encompassing framework for the optimization of patient flow. Using a comprehensive dataset of 2.3 million de-identified patient records, we analyzed demographics, diagnoses, treatments, services, costs, and charges with machine learning models (Decision Tree, Logistic Regression, Random Forest, Adaboost, LightGBM) and Python tools (Spark, AWS clusters, dimensionality reduction). Our model predicts patient length of stay (LoS) upon admission using supervised learning algorithms. This hybrid approach enables the identification of key factors influencing LoS, offering a robust framework for hospitals to streamline patient flow and resource utilization. The research focuses on patient flow, corroborating the efficacy of the approach, illustrating decreased patient length of stay within a real healthcare environment. The findings underscore the potential of hybrid data-driven models in transforming hospital management practices. This innovative methodology provides generally flexible decision-making, training, and patient flow enhancement; such a system could have huge implications for healthcare administration and overall satisfaction with healthcare.

  It is important that the patient discharge task addresses the nuanced trade-off between decreasing a patient's length of stay and the risk of readmission or even death following the discharge decision. This work introduces an end-to-end general framework for capturing this trade-off to recommend optimal discharge timing decisions. A data-driven approach is used to derive a parsimonious, discrete state space representation that captures a patient's physiological condition.
