Hierarchical Modeling of ICD Codes in EHR Foundation Models

arXiv:2606. 15447v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Electronic health record foundation models typically treat ICD diagnosis codes as flat tokens, overlooking the clinically meaningful hierarchical structure that captures disease families, subcategories, and fine-grained diagnostic detail.
