This paper presents REACH, an advanced machine learning framework to deliver comprehensive decision support for older patient prioritisation. The framework employs a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture, integrating multiple specialised predictive models to simultaneously address four critical dimensions: complex care pathway classification, aged residential care prediction, early supported discharge assessment, and mortality risk evaluation. The MoE architecture features a context-aware attention-based gating mechanism that dynamically adjusts expert contributions based on patient characteristics and operational factors. The framework’s implements an automated model selection, and hyperparameter optimisation through a Combined Algorithm Selection and Hyperparameter-tuning methodology. This study is a conceptual theory extending on the fundamentals of REACH to create a multi-dimensional model. This work addresses a critical gap in healthcare delivery by providing a comprehensive, data-driven approach to optimising care pathways for older patients while considering resource constraints and operational efficiency.

摘要

This paper presents REACH, an advanced machine learning framework to deliver comprehensive decision support for older patient prioritisation. The framework employs a Mixture of Experts (MoE) architecture, integrating multiple specialised predictive models to simultaneously address four critical dimensions: complex care pathway classification, aged residential care prediction, early supported discharge assessment, and mortality risk evaluation. The MoE architecture features a context-aware attention-based gating mechanism that dynamically adjusts expert contributions based on patient characteristics and operational factors. The framework’s implements an automated model selection, and hyperparameter optimisation through a Combined Algorithm Selection and Hyperparameter-tuning methodology. This study is a conceptual theory extending on the fundamentals of REACH to create a multi-dimensional model. This work addresses a critical gap in healthcare delivery by providing a comprehensive, data-driven approach to optimising care pathways for older patients while considering resource constraints and operational efficiency.
