Study population: Subjects admitted at Brigham and Women's Hospital and Brigham and Women's Faulkner Hospital who meet primary diagnosis, age, and residence within 5 mile requirements and are enrolled in home hospital.

Brief summary: This is a retrospective observational study drawing on data from the Brigham and Women's Home Hospital database. Sociodemographic and clinic data from a training cohort were used to train a machine learning algorithm to predict length of stay throughout a patient's admission. This algorithm was then validated in a validation cohort.


Eligibility criteria: Was a subject in the Brigham and Women's Home Hospital study and has a completed record in the study's database.

Primary outcomes:
measure: Length of Stay
timeFrame: From date of admission to date of discharge (1 to 24 days)
Secondary outcomes:
