- Abstract
Health care is a very vast and complex system in which different departments interact with each other to deliver services to patients. In this paper we study, specifically, the emergency department of a hospital with its existing problems and how simulation can influence solving these problems, increase patient satisfaction and increase revenue. The simulation has emerged as a popular decision support in the domains of manufacturing and services industries. In this study, we will present the advantage of this technology in improving the health care services. A review of the advantages of the simulation modeling is presented along with a comparison between the most two popular simulation software in the market nowadays: ARENA and SIMIO.
