However, incarceration status is largely invisible to health services research due to inadequate clinical electronic health record (EHR) capture. This study aims to develop, train, and validate natural language processing (NLP) techniques to more effectively identify incarceration status in the EHR.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S2059866124004965_as2\">\n\t    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>The study population consisted of adult patients (\u2265 18 y.o.) who presented to the emergency department between June 2013 and August 2021. The EHR database was filtered for notes for specific incarceration-related terms, and then a random selection of 1,000 notes was annotated for incarceration and further stratified into specific statuses of prior history, recent, and current incarceration. For NLP model development, 80% of the notes were used to train the Longformer-based and RoBERTa algorithms. The remaining 20% of the notes underwent analysis with GPT-4.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S2059866124004965_as3\">\n\t    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>There were 849 unique patients across 989 visits in the 1000 annotated notes. Manual annotation revealed that 559 of 1000 notes (55.9%) contained evidence of incarceration history. ICD-10 code (sensitivity: 4.8%, specificity: 99.1%, F1-score: 0.09) demonstrated inferior performance to RoBERTa NLP (sensitivity: 78.6%, specificity: 73.3%, F1-score: 0.79), Longformer NLP (sensitivity: 94.6%, specificity: 87.5%, F1-score: 0.93), and GPT-4 (sensitivity: 100%, specificity: 61.1%, F1-score: 0.86).<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S2059866124004965_as4\">\n\t    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>Our advanced NLP models demonstrate a high degree of accuracy in identifying incarceration status from clinical notes. Further research is needed to explore their scaled implementation in population health initiatives and assess their potential to mitigate health disparities through tailored system interventions.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/cts.2024.496","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,11]],"date-time":"2024-03-11T08:24:42Z","timestamp":1710145482000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Identifying incarceration status in the electronic health record using large language models in emergency department settings"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9056-7016","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Thomas","family":"Huang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vimig","family":"Socrates","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aidan","family":"Gilson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Conrad","family":"Safranek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ling","family":"Chi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Emily A.","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lisa B.","family":"Puglisi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Cynthia","family":"Brandt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9082-6644","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"R.
