Abstract

In a new article in Health Services Research titled Evaluating a Predictive Model of Avoidable Hospital Events for Race- and Sex-Based Bias, Hilltop researchers Leigh Goetschius, Fei Han, Ruichen Sun, and Morgan Henderson—along with UMBC researcher Ian Stockwell—assessed a large, productionized predictive model of avoidable hospital (AH) events for bias based on patient race and sex.
