Abstract
Presented are systems and methods that allow healthcare providers and governments to infer demand for healthcare resources to ensure effective and timely healthcare services to patients by reducing healthcare supply shortages, emergencies, and healthcare costs. In embodiments, this is accomplished by gathering data from a number of sources to generate labeled records from which entity features and relationships between entities are extracted, correlates, and/or combined with other external healthcare data. In embodiments, this information is used to train a model that predicts healthcare resource demands given a set of input conditions or factors.
