Abstract: Techniques are described for predicting readmissions of patients to an inpatient healthcare facility. In an embodiment, a method comprises applying, by a system comprising a processor, applying, by a system operatively coupled to a processor, a readmission risk forecasting model to medical history data for a patient, wherein the readmission risk forecasting model comprises an attention-based graph neural network (A-GNN). The method further comprises, based on the applying, generating, by the system, a readmission risk score for the patient that reflects a probability of readmission of the patient following discharge from an inpatient healthcare facility. The method further comprises facilitating providing, by the system, the readmission risk score to at least one of the patient or a clinician involved in care of the patient.
