Analyzing the impact of public health interventions on ambulatory healthcare capacities - A preliminary model

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceeding › Conference contribution › peer-review

Abstract

Emergency Departments (EDs) have become a central point of contact for diverse populations seeking services to treat primary care medical concerns and manage chronic conditions. This paper presents a simulation model that characterizes the flow of populations among various treatment venues. The model enables the understanding of the dynamics of the supply and demand of ambulatory services from the capacity and utilization perspective. The ability to anticipate resources that participate in healthcare delivery in the presence of public health interventions is central to maintaining optimal customer satisfaction and improving revenue opportunities.
