Agent-Based Modeling and Simulation of Care Delivery for Patients with Thrombotic and Bleeding Disorders

The quality of patients care delivery is thought to be strongly affected by the physicians' workload. In this study we present an Agent-Based model of the processes during a typical working day. We simulated the current scenario and a possible scenario concerning the introduction of a second ambulatory as a potential improvement in the center organization. Our results validated the reliability of the model and showed that the introduction of a second ambulatory averagely reduces the daily physician' workload.
