Development of a Machine Learning-Based Prescriptive Tool to Address Racial Disparities in Access to Care After Penetrating Trauma.

In this study, we developed an accurate, machine learning-based, fairness-adjusted model that can identify barriers to discharge to postacute care. Instead of accidentally encoding bias, interpretable AI methodologies are powerful tools to diagnose and remedy system-related bias in care, such as disparities in access to postinjury rehabilitation care.
