Summary: The updated 2nd edition of Healthcare Management Engineering In Action in the Business Guides on the Go series provides a comprehensive exploration of healthcare management operations. Through a systematic comparison of predictive and analytic decision-making methodologies with traditional management approaches, the book employs case studies derived from real-world hospital and clinic scenarios. It addresses a spectrum of problem encompassing patient flow, capacity management, resource allocation, staffing and scheduling, statistical data analytics, and cost distribution among cooperating providers. The revised edition contains enhanced content, spotlighting key management principles vital for effective operational decision-making. The book encompasses a wide array of quantitative methods, including discrete event simulation, queuing analytic theory, linear, integer and probabilistic optimization, among others. By acting as a bridge between management engineering experts and healthcare administrators, Healthcare Management Engineering is an invaluable resource for hospital and clinic leadership, aiding them in their managerial roles. Furthermore, it serves as a comprehensive repository of introductory challenges and projects suitable for graduate-level students in healthcare management and administration.
