Federated Learning of Electronic Health Records Improves Mortality Prediction in Patients Hospitalized with COVID-19
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Machine learning (ML) models require large datasets which may be siloed across different healthcare institutions. Using federated learning, a ML technique that avoids locally aggregating raw clinical data across multiple institutions, we predict mortality within seven days in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Patient data was collected from Electronic Health Records (EHRs) from five hospitals within the Mount Sinai Health System (MSHS). Logistic Regression with L1 regularization (LASSO) and Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) models were trained using local data at each site, a pooled model with combined data from all five sites, and a federated model that only shared parameters with a central aggregator. Both the federated LASSO and federated MLP models performed better than their local model counterparts at four hospitals. The federated MLP model also outperformed the federated LASSO model at all hospitals. Federated learning shows promise in COVID-19 EHR data to develop robust predictive models without compromising patient privacy.

TL;DR
This study used federated learning to predict 7-day mortality among 4,029 hospitalized COVID-19 patients across five Mount Sinai Health System hospitals, comparing local, pooled, and federated LASSO and MLP models. Federated models generally improved on local models, and federated MLP often performed best, while pooled LASSO remained stronger than federated LASSO.
Key findings
- In 4,029 COVID-19-positive patients, 7-day mortality prevalence differed significantly across hospitals (p<0.001), ranging from 5.6% to 24.2%.
- Federated LASSO outperformed local LASSO at all sites except MSQ, with AUC-ROC 0.693–0.805; pooled LASSO outperformed federated LASSO at all five sites, with AUC-ROC 0.736–0.822.
- Federated MLP surpassed federated LASSO at all sites and consistently outperformed all other tested models at all hospitals except MSB; local MLP outperformed local LASSO at all hospitals.
- Adding Gaussian noise to federated MLP decreased performance at all sites except MSQ; AUC-ROC ranged 0.796–0.834 without noise and 0.767–0.830 with noise.
Methods
- Data came from Epic EHRs of five MSHS hospitals in NYC: MSB (n=611), MSH (n=1644), MSM (n=749), MSQ (n=540), and MSW (n=485); primary outcome was mortality within seven days of admission.
- LASSO and MLP models were trained locally at each site, pooled across all sites, and federated via parameter sharing with a central aggregator using federated averaging; no raw data were shared.
- Models were evaluated with 10-fold stratified cross-validation, using AUC-ROC averaged across folds; Gaussian noise experiments simulated federated learning in practice.
Limitations
- Stated: data were limited to MSHS hospitals in NYC, which may limit generalizability; the work focused on principle rather than an operational deployment and did not address load balancing, convergence, or scaling; only clinical data and two classifiers were used; identical MLP architectures were used across strategies for comparison but could have been further optimized.
- Evident from the text: there was no external validation outside the same health system, and some sites had small samples and marked differences in mortality prevalence (e.g., MSQ n=540, 23.0%; MSW n=485, 5.6%), which may affect site-level comparisons.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-09, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
