Project Summary/ Specific Aims

Two specific aims: (1) develop and validate separate prediction models to identify patients at risk of problematic opioid use and opioid overdose; (2) compare the accuracy of a prediction algorithm that integrates clinical data with Medicaid claims versus a claims-based approach alone to identify patients at risk of problematic opioid use and opioid overdose. The machine learning approaches will include random forests with representative classification trees, and TreeNet, and the predictive ability (e.g., misclassification rates) of these algorithms will be compared to traditional statistical models. These techniques will identify both key predictors of each outcome and distinct subgroups of patients at differential risk of problematic opioid use and overdose.
