The method used in this quantitative and qualitative review and comprehensive search strategy was developed to capture the maximum number of relevant articles in each database. The following databases were used to select the papers: PUBMED, ACM Digital Library, IEEEXplore, ScienceDirect, and SpringerLink by applying the following extensive search expression: (“Process Mining” AND “Health Technology Assessment”).
As for the time period covered, the initial year of selection was 2002 - an important reference year for the subject of process mining due to the creation of the Alpha or α-miner algorithm, an algorithm that, besides being the first one created, also made the subject of process mining more relevant. The review period ended in June 2020.
