A simulation-IP based tool for patient admission services in a multi-specialty outpatient clinic
2014
Proceedings of the Winter Simulation Conference 2014
In this paper, we develop a framework that integrates a discrete-event simulation model and integer programming (IP) model for patient admission planning and the intermediate term allocation of resource capacities. Two types of patients are considered in this study: new and existing. The simulation model is used to find the best balance between new and existing patients arriving to each appointment time period during the day. New patients require more time to complete their admission processes
