Reduction of turnaround time in a hospital's clinical lababoratory by simulation modeling

Reduction of turnaround time in a hospital's clinical lababoratory by simulation modeling

We develop a simulation model of a clinical laboratory for a complete blood count (CBC) test in a large private hospital. The model will be used for experimenting with new lab layouts and new work processes for the CBC test to reduce the turnaround time which is defined as total time in process. The...
