Abstract
The paper presents a research framework based on network theory to understand chronic disease progression along with associated comorbidities that manifest over time. The analysis methods provide insights that can enable healthcare providers to develop targeted preventive health management programs to reduce hospital admissions and associated high costs. The baseline comorbidity network has the potential to be used as the basis to develop a chronic disease risk prediction model.
