Predicting Discharge Diagnoses Using a Computerized Preadmission Screening Tool

Joseph W. Hales and Reed M. Gardner

Medical Decision Making, 1991, vol. 11, issue 4_suppl, S37-S40

Abstract: The authors integrated into an existing hospital information system a preadmission screening system, intended to reduce payment denials and reimbursement shortfalls that result from improperly classifying the billing status of patients. They report the results of efforts to validate the expert system upon which the preadmission screening system is based.
