"House" executive producer, Katie Jacobs, has an explanation on Olivia Wilde's character Thirteen leaving the hospital for a while.  Here it is from Fancast:

I’m a fan of ‘House.’ Is there any news? – Sunshiner

If only because Olivia Wilde brings so much pretty to the screen, I asked EP Katie Jacobs for just how long Thirteen will be MIA when the new season picks up. Katie though refused to give me a number, explaining in this red carpet video, “It’s linked to narrative. When Thirteen does come back, it’s not like she’s just going to be sitting in the office doing a diagnosis.  There’s a real reason why she had to leave – it’s surprising and juicy and it deepens her character and our understanding of her.” Wilde’s return also won’t necessarily dictate a hasty exit for Amber Tamblyn’s newbie.
