Simulating triage of patients into an internal medicine department to validate the use of an optimization-based workload score
WSC '17: Proceedings of the 2017 Winter Simulation ConferenceThis study describes a simulation model that was used to evaluate a proposed workload score. The score was designed to assist in triaging patients into the hospital services of the Division of Hospital Internal Medicine at Mayo Clinic in an effort to ...
Simulation analysis of an outpatient department of internal medicine in a university hospital
WSC '06: Proceedings of the 38th conference on Winter simulationSoaring health care costs and greater emphasis on preventative medicine have compelled researchers to examine new ways to reduce costs and improve efficiency in outpatient services. Extended waiting times for treatment in the outpatient department ...
Simulation analysis of appointment scheduling in an outpatient department of internal medicine
WSC '05: Proceedings of the 37th conference on Winter simulationLong waiting times for treatment in the outpatient department of internal medicine, followed by short consultations has long been a complaint of patients. This issue is becoming increasingly important in Japan with the progressively aging society. In ...
