Abstract in brief

The development of machine learning models in healthcare must address and reduce biases that can arise from the data used.
A new reinforcement learning framework was introduced to help counteract these biases, specifically in predicting COVID-19 in emergency departments, focusing on minimizing hospital-specific and ethnicity-related disparities.
The method showed promising results in both screening performance and fairness during external validation in three hospitals, proving its ability to generalize across different healthcare settings.
