Simulation model for the analysis of Patient Scheduling Process in Radio Diagnosis Department

Abstract

India accounts for only 2.4 percent of the world surface area and yet it supports and sustains 17.74 percent of the world population. This statistics always seems to be a barrier for successful growth of Healthcare systems in India. Even though ample number of new schemes is launched, still the public health system in the country continues to face formidable challenges. Development of efficient healthcare systems can improve the public health systems. This work aims to develop a simulation model for the Radio diagnosis department of a hospital. The model is developed to study the behavior of the Radio diagnosis department and perform a "what-if" analysis. Thus the simulation model is used as an efficient tool to understand the problem environment and suggesting possible improvements.
