Healthcare utilization and chronic condition clusters in multimorbidity patients using weighted k-means: a register-based study in Denmark
The identified clusters showed varying chronic condition patterns and levels of healthcare utilization. The findings underscore the importance of tailored strategies, particularly for multimorbidity patients with mental conditions taking social status into account, in order to improve care and manage resource use more effectively.
