Abstract

The structure of this chapter is as follows: Firstly, a literature review on patient scheduling and capacity allocation problems in health care is provided. Similarities and differences between the scheduling problems addressed in this dissertation and the approaches available from the literature are highlighted. Secondly, the patient flow problem with fixed admission dates is presented. Thirdly, the patient flow problem with variable admission dates is described, followed by an example for both the fixed and variable admission date problem.
