Mining Disease Courses across Organizations: A Methodology Based on Process Mining of Diagnosis Events Datasets.

This work proposes the use of Process Mining methodologies on healthcare datasets containing diagnosis information as a means to identify the course of a disease across organizations. Datasets containing diagnosis information for administrative purposes are a good candidate due to its standardized format, widespread availability and coverage. We present a methodology to preprocess, cluster and mine diagnosis information and the results of a preliminary use case with diabetes type II.
