MODELING AND OPTIMAL ALLOCATION IN HEALTHCARE PLANNING USING R

Abstract

Due to the continuously changing patient loads in hospitals either private or government the problem increases with overtime assigning different surgeries, allocation of beds, time hours etc for various medical services in hospitals. These problems can be effectively solved by using optimization techniques. In this paper a linear programming problem (LPP) is formulated and is used to determine the optimal combination of different surgeries performed in a private hospital that maximizes the total profit contributed by patients. The optimal solution of the formulated LPP is obtained using Branch and Bound method through R software.
