Compare the expected time patients spend in the system (by patient type) and the waiting times at each station for the baseline, +5%, +7%, and +10% cases. • Add an additional patient type (registration, lab, treatment, accounting, depart). These patients arrive at the rate of 3 per hour. Can new system handle these new patients (under the 4 scenarios above)? If not, what is your recommendation (be specific)? • Replace the free-space movement with paths and "layout" for a clinic (starting with the single-source model). You can find a suitable layout on the internet or just make one up (using “reasonable” distances between stations). Copyright © 2013 - Jeffrey S. Smith and Simio LLC | All Rights Reserved 7
