Forecast-Based Newsvendor Models for Hospital Bed Capacity Management

IEEE Robotics and Automation Letters, 2021
Hospitals worldwide share common challenges in finding the optimal number of patient beds in advance, which is referred to as the bed capacity management problem. Effective management cannot be achieved without an appropriate understanding of the stochastic nature of patient demands.

A network flow approach to optimizing hospital bed capacity decisions

Health Care Management Science, 2006
The delivery of cost-effective and quality hospital-based health care remains an important and ongoing challenge for the American health care industry. Despite numerous advances in medical procedures and technologies, a growing array of outpatient health care options, limits on inpatient reimbursements, and almost two decades of hospital contraction ...

Managing Hospital Bed Capacity Through Partitioning Care into Focused Wings

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2012
We consider the partitioning of care types into wings from the perspective of a hospital administrator, who wishes to optimize the use of a fixed number of beds that provide services for heterogeneous care types. Patients of each care type request admission to the hospital stochastically, and if admitted, require a stochastic length-of-stay and provide

A simple method to optimize hospital beds capacity

International Journal of Medical Informatics, 2005
The number of acute hospital beds is determined by health authorities using methods based on ratios and/or target bed occupancy rates. These methods fail to consider the variability in hospitalization demands over time. On the other hand, the implementation of sophisticated models requires the decision concerning the number of beds to be made by an ...
