A method of identifying insights related to the occurrence of an adverse health outcome of interest, comprises extracting electronic clinical data associated with historical healthcare encounters. The method also comprises defining patient groups based upon similar data patterns present in the extracted electronic clinical data wherein the patient groups have varying likelihood for the adverse health outcome. Still further, the method comprises deriving hypothesized etiological explanations for why one or more patient groups have higher likelihood when compared to other patient groups. Optionally, the method comprises identifying clinical interventions that are intended to reduce the likelihood of the adverse outcome for certain patient groups.
