Tactical planning in hospitals involves elective patient admission and the allocation of hospital resource capacities. We propose a method to develop tactical plan that takes stochastic elements into consideration, thereby providing robust plans. Our is developed an Approximate Dynamic Programming (ADP) framework copes with multiple resources, time periods groups uncertain treatment paths number arrivals each period. As such, enables integrated decision making for network departments...
We introduce the categorized reference database ORchestra, which is available online at http://www.utwente.nl/choir/orchestra/ .
Outpatient clinics traditionally organize processes such that the doctor remains in a consultation room while patients visit for consultation, we call this Patient-to-Doctor policy (PtD-policy). A different approach is Doctor-to-Patient (DtP-policy), whereby travels between multiple rooms, which prepare their consultation. In latter approach, saves time by consulting fully prepared patients. We use queueing theoretic and discrete-event simulation to provide generic models enable performance...
