Multi-Perspective Process Mining Interfaces for HL7 AuditEvent Repositories: XES and OCEL

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2023 May 2:301:168-173. doi: 10.3233/SHTI230034.

Abstract

Background: Medical information systems frequently use event logging, but these logs are not suitable for process mining as they are not logged in a standardized format.

Objectives: Our goal is to enrich medical event logs for use in process mining.

Method: We present an approach to convert events from standards- based repositories into the XES and OCEL formats commonly used in process mining.

Results: We tested this approach using simulated data from the Austrian breast cancer screening program.

Conclusion: We aim to apply it to analyze care guidelines and improve hospital processes in the future.

Keywords: Data Mining; Electronic Health Records; Health Care; Process Assessment; Standard of Care.
