Imitation Modeling of the Activity of the Present-Day Multi-Profile Medical Institution

Abstract

Modeling the activity of medical institutions is one of promising lines in enhancing the organization of medical aid. However, its realization today is restricted by research work. The key reason is the difficulty of developing effective models in public health service and working with them, which is envisaged by a wide diversity of processes of medical services provided to the population. In the National Pirogov Surgery Center methods of modeling the patients' flow are introduced in the process of hospital management. The authors show results of the preparatory, analytical stage. Analysis of the data demonstrates that methods of the theory of mass service can be applied to processes of a big multi-profile medical institution and the quality of data in the medical information system provides an opportunity to use it for imitation modeling. Preliminary results of data preparation were given. It was shown that the complexity of collection, treatment and presentation of data is a strategic function, which can be compared to complexity of model development.
