ObjectiveThe classification of clinical note sections is a critical step before doing more fine-grained natural language processing tasks such as social determinants of health extraction and temporal information extraction. Often, clinical note section classification models that achieve high accuracy for one institution experience a large drop of accuracy when transferred to another institution. The objective of this study is to develop methods that classify clinical note sections under the SOAP...
