Mathematical modeling helps hospitals efficiently assign patients to the right space

In collaboration with UW Health and the UW-Madison Department of Emergency Medicine, UW-Madison Dept. of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISyE) PhD student Fernando Acosta-Pérez and Associate Professor Gabriel Zayas-Cabán developed a mathematical model to forecast nearly real-time hospital discharges.

The work can help inform hospital admissions decisions in emergency departments.
