“…Recent research evaluated process mining in several settings, e.g., oncology [13], elderly care [14], and health care in general [15,16]. Even though different views on enterprises, including production firms, have been examined, e.g., the supply chain [17], we find production itself is not at the center of interest [18].…”

Since process mining started to reveal the potential of event logs, it has been applied in various process settings ranging from healthcare to production. Every single setting poses its challenges to process analysts who want to apply process mining. The present paper aims at minimizing such challenges for enterprises in the industrial sector by providing a coherent overview of existing cases. Our systematic literature review relates each production form and layout from existing case studies to the applied process mining type. Further, we use Porter's Value Chain to distinguish operations from other primary and support activities in production. We present the application of process mining, particularly for the production process and the primary activities other than the operations. The results indicate that process mining fits best with cellular production layouts with batch or line production processes.

Healthcare organizations are confronted with challenges including the contention between tightening budgets and increased care needs. In the light of these challenges, they are becoming increasingly aware of the need to improve their processes to ensure quality of care for patients. To identify process improvement opportunities, a thorough process analysis is required, which can be based on real-life process execution data captured by health information systems. Process mining is a research field that focuses on the development of techniques to extract process-related insights from process execution data, providing valuable and previously unknown information to instigate evidence-based process improvement in healthcare. However, despite the potential of process mining, its uptake in healthcare organizations outside case studies in a research context is rather limited. This observation was the starting point for an international brainstorm seminar. Based on the seminar's outcomes and with the ambition to stimulate a more widespread use of process mining in healthcare, this paper formulates recommendations to enhance the usability and understandability of process mining in healthcare. These recommendations are mainly targeted towards process mining researchers and the community to consider when developing a new research agenda for process mining in healthcare. Moreover, a limited number of recommendations are directed towards healthcare organizations and health information systems vendors, when shaping an environment to enable the continuous use of process mining.

“…Farid et al (2019)) reviewed eight papers where PM techniques were applied to the care of frail elderly people. The authors presented the results referring to five emerging themes, namely, geographical location, analysis methodology, source data types, adopted process, medical context and open challenges.…”

Process mining (PM) is a well-known research area that includes techniques, methodologies, and tools for analyzing processes in a variety of application domains. In the case of healthcare, processes are characterized by high variability in terms of activities, duration, and involved resources (e.g., physicians, nurses, administrators, machineries, etc.). Besides, the multitude of diseases that the patients housed in healthcare facilities suffer from makes medical contexts highly heterogeneous. As a result, understanding and analyzing healthcare processes are certainly not trivial tasks, and administrators and doctors look for tools and methods that can concretely support them in improving the healthcare services they are involved in. In this context, PM has been increasingly used for a wide range of applications as reported in some recent reviews. However, these reviews mainly focus on discussion on applications related to the clinical pathways, while a systematic review of all possible applications is absent. In this article, we selected 172 papers published in the last 10 years, that present applications of PM in the healthcare domain. The objective of this study is to help and guide researchers interested in the medical field to understand the main PM applications in the healthcare, but also to suggest new ways to develop promising and not yet fully investigated applications. Moreover, our study could be of interest for practitioners who are considering applications of PM, who can identify and choose PM algorithms, techniques, tools, methodologies, and approaches, toward what have been the experiences of success.
