BACKGROUND Hospitals are complex adaptive systems within which multiple components such as patients, practitioners, facilities, and technology interact. A careful approach to optimization of this system is needed because any change can result in unexpected deleterious effects. One discrete event simulation, what‐if scenarios allow researchers predict the impact a proposed on system. However, studies illustrating application simulation general internal medicine (GIM) team inpatient operations...
