Patient flow through healthcare systems is a multifaceted process. Emergency department (ED) patient flow directly impacts access block and inpatient bed management, while optimizing inpatient flow improves efficiency and care quality for multiple service areas. However, existing intelligent healthcare solutions for managing patient flow remain narrow in focus and scope, with few tackling the challenge of ED and inpatient bed management in a holistic manner. AI-augmented big data technology is emerging as a key capability for enhancing healthcare operational performance. Real-time big data ingestion pipelines combined with states-aspect big data architecture enable large-scale integration, management, and utilization of various data sources, breaking down data silos that impede real-time data-driven decision-making. AI research has shown strong potential in improving patient flow, but progress has been fragmented.
Key performance indicators for ED patient flow targets encompass throughput, wait times, length of stay, correctness of admissions and discharges, and avoidances; for inpatient bed management, they include occupancy levels, timely discharge planning, and efficient bed-cycle times. The maturity model and adoption roadmap provide a structured best-practice guide for leveraging big data and AI technology to enhance patient flow across all stages. A compliance framework aligned with governance policies steers legal and ethical use of data assets; privacy-preserving techniques mitigate data-sharing concerns, fostering real-world application of research insights.
