Abstract

Bed management directly impacts the amount of medical care provided to patients and the economic efficiency of hospitals. Beds in hospitals are managed according to the length of stay (LOS) in the hospital, as expected by doctors. The efficiency of bed management would improve if the LOS could be accurately predicted. This study focuses on predicting the LOS for multiple diseases in short-term inpatient management. The data in short-term inpatient records from Ebina General Hospital are used for predicting the LOS requirements using a machine learning (ML) algorithm. We demonstrate the relation-ship between the prediction accuracy and ML algorithm. This study provides insight into the prediction of the short-term LOS on a daily basis.
