Gaining Insights into Patient Satisfaction through Interpretable Machine Learning

Abstract - Inanattempttoquantify patient experiences, CMS developed a nationwide standardized survey instrument-HospitalConsumerAssessmentofHealthcare Providers and Systems (HCAHPS) Survey for assessing hospitalcare.Self-reportedquestionnaireoffersfeedbacks ontheprovider’ssuccessinmeetingpatients’expectations and serves as an effective means to evaluate the tangible hospital services. Beyond that, patient-related characteristics and clinical information substantially contributetothevariationsinpatients’behavioralintentions

.Forexample,satisfactionlevelvariesamongpatientswith different diseases and usually remains at a low level for patients of poor health status. In fact, the healthcare experiences of a patient can be viewed as a personalized journeyconnectingamyriadoftouchpointsthatapatient interactswith,acrossmultipleserviceunits,andthroughout theentirelengthofstay.

The proposed framework transforms heterogeneous data intohumanunderstandablefeaturesandintegratesfeature transformation,variableselection,andcoefficientlearning into the optimization process. Therefore, it can achieve desirable model performance while maintaining excellent modelinterpretability,whichpavesthewayforsuccessful real-worldapplications.

Key Words: patient-centered care, mixed-integer programming model, real-world applications.

1. INTRODUCTION

P ATIENT satisfaction is one of the critical indicators in evaluatinghealthcarequality.Intheeraofpatientcentered care, an individual’s unique health needs, personalized treatmentanddesiredhealthoutcomesarethemaindrivers behind health policy decisions. Patient satisfaction, as a direct feedback and quality measurement of patient experiences, have influenced the care delivery in the past decade,andthewayhowhealthsystemsaremanagedand reimbursed.

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) haveinitialedtheHospitalValue-BasedPurchasingProgram whichpartiallylinkshospitalreimbursementfromCMStoa setof qualitymeasuresincludingpatientsatisfaction;hence poor performance on these measures can substantially increasethefinancialriskofhospitals.Besidesthefinancial impact, patient satisfaction is strongly associated with

greater compliance and increased treatment adherence ,therebyleadingtoimprovedhealthoutcomes.Assessingthe influencingfactorsthatdrivepatientsatisfactionisacrucial step in developing corrective actions and necessary interventions. As with other service sectors, factors influencing patient satisfaction consist of tangible aspects like hospital services and intangible aspects like patient demographics and socioeconomic status. In an attempt to quantifypatientexperiences,CMSdevelopedanationwide standardized survey instrument - Hospital Consumer Assessment ofHealthcareProvidersandSystems(HCAHPS) Survey forassessinghospitalcare.

2.EXISTING SYSTEM

Mostexistingstudieshavefocusedonvariablesofasingle source, while failing to relate a broader scale of indirect factors that may also affect patient satisfaction Second, accordingtoapreviousinvestigationverylimitednumberof approaches is involved in patient satisfaction studies. Commonlyusedapproachesincludemeanandpercentage calculation, correlation and regression analysis, pairwise comparison, principal component analysis, and other traditionalstatisticalmethods.

The first trajectory is to develop novel intrinsically interpretablemodelsandto improvethe existingonesfor enhancedperformanceonspecifictasks.

For instance, Lethem propose a generative model called BayesianRuleListsthatutilizesasequenceof if-then-else decision statements to achieve accurate performance on strokeprediction.

Disadvantage:

Our ATC simulator task during the selection process engendered high stress and required complex cognitive functioningforATCOcandidates,similartohowthespatial frequencypowerofHRVorRSAmeasuredatrestpredicted subsequent military training performance in several environments of stressful and cognitive and emotional complextraining.

5. IMPLEMENTATION

There are two psychophysiological biomarkers of stress persistence: the aural startle response (ASR) and or the physiological allosteric responses (PAR). Analysis of electrocardiography , electromyography, electro dermal activityandbreathingwerepartofamultimodalapproach. But use a binary classification task, we examine the informationaboutthefutureofthefeaturemapgenerated byourcomputationaltechniqueofassessingphysiological aspects of stress resilience and comparing high- and lowperforming ATC simulators. Our new technique gives a classificationaccuracyof78.16percent.

Using earlier research, these findings are assessed and compared to those of other studies, as well as future researchpossibilities.

Resilience-relatedbiologicalchangesinagroupofpeopleare more difficult to detect than the general population or cohorts that include PTSD patients and hcs. This lends weight to our research since we discovered useful informationformachinelearning-basedpredictionoftask performance under stress in a group of physiological parameters unconnected to the task that had diminished variability.
