7TH IMA QUANTITATIVE MODELLING IN THE MANAGEMENT OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL CARE CONFERENCE
Monday 25 – Wednesday 27 March 2013
Woburn House Conference Centre, London
Aim and Scope
Health and Social Care systems are facings major challenges worldwide, due in part to changes in demography and advances in technology and in part to changes in the structure and organisation of the system whether they are hospitals, general practitioners or long-term care settings. Yet running health and social care systems efficiently and effectively is crucial to improving or even maintaining our quality of life. Over the years, extensive research has been conducted to find immediate and long-term solutions to issues that are routinely faced by health and social care professionals, such as waiting lists and bed capacity, hospital redesign, workforce planning and scheduling, patient flow, performance management, disease monitoring, and health care technology assessment. Mathematical modelling and computer simulation techniques (statistical analysis, stochastic processes, queuing theory, mathematical programming, heuristics, discrete event simulation, system dynamics, etc) have shown to be increasingly valuable in providing useful information to aid planning and management. The aim of the conference is to bring together health care managers, clinicians, management consultants, and mathematicians, operational researchers, statisticians, health economists, computer scientists etc from across the world with a view to bridging the gap between the respective communities and to exploring recent developments and identifying fruitful avenues for further research.
