Summary
This chapter provides an introduction to analytics-driven hospital capacity management through three projects that employed mathematical programming and discrete event simulation to address common challenges. The first project used mathematical programming to identify the mix of patients at Stanford Hospital that would maximize revenue given the capacity of hospital resources after a planned hospital expansion. The second project used discrete event simulation to plan the physical capacity and operational profile of a new procedural space at a hospital in New England. The third project combined mathematical programming and discrete event simulation to create a tool to schedule surgical procedures at Lucile Packard Children's Hospital Stanford.
