Abstract: The healthcare big data industry is rapidly developing globally, and data mining and knowledge services in the healthcare field have become one of the core demands for its development. Data mining in healthcare is beneficial to improve the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment of patients, which is helpful to formulate more effective treatment plans and reduce medical costs. In this paper, we searched the core journals on China Knowledge Network and web of science by subject terms, and eliminated the irrelevant articles for literature counting. In this paper, the commonly used models and algorithms of data mining in healthcare are firstly elaborated; then the progress of the application of this technology in assisting medical tasks, optimizing resource allocation and improving health information services are respectively reviewed, summarizing the segmentation, classic algorithms and representative studies implied by each application. However, the application of data mining technology in healthcare also faces some problems, from data collection, to data cleaning, preprocessing, visualization, to the selection of algorithms and evaluation of results, each link is full of difficulties and challenges. Finally, this paper proposes future research directions such as diversifying data sources, strengthening security and privacy protection, developing visualization and analysis tools, accurately using big data to improve the service level of healthcare institutions, semanticizing electronic medical records mining, and improving cancer prevention. At the same time, data mining is deeply integrated with cloud computing, artificial intelligence and other fields to jointly promote scientific and technological progress in the field of health care.
