Description
Summary:The costs of patient care reached a new height. Poor management of patient flows in hospitals lead to unnecessary waiting time, a low degree of capacity utilization and expensive needless treatments. In the beginning of this paper a shortly overview of health care optimization research is shown, which leads to the implementation of interdisciplinary clinical pathways to improve the patient flow. Based on this the structure of scheduling focused clinical pathways is described. After that, a mixed integer linear programming model is shown, which is able to schedule these pathways. In the end the model is verified by an instance of a clinical pathway.
