In this talk, you will learn how at Diagnostic Robotics we create insights from claims data, a form of administrative data at large scale, which provides a great opportunity for AI in healthcare. You will understand how we use medical code embeddings


In this talk, you will learn how at Diagnostic Robotics we create insights from claims data, a form of administrative data at large scale, which provides a great opportunity for AI in healthcare. You will understand how we use medical code embeddings and deep learning methods to build predictive proactive models that benefit the patients and reduce the cost of healthcare. We will also discuss the concept of causal machine learning, its use to emulate randomised controlled trials and see how it’s related to our models.
