In electronic health record (EHR) mining, learning high-quality representations of medical concepts (e.g., standardized diagnosis, medication, and procedure codes) is fundamental for downstream clinical prediction. However, robust concept representation learning is hindered by two key challenges:...

Large Language Models (LLMs) have shown strong promise for mining Electronic Health Records (EHRs) by reasoning over longitudinal clinical information to capture context-rich patient trajectories. However, leveraging LLMs for structured EHRs (e.g., standardized diagnosis and medication codes) pre...
