Implementing Advance Scheduling Technology to Reduce MRI/CT Patient Wait Times
The objective of the research project is to validate a new advance scheduling algorithm for MRI & CT bookings at a partner hospital and to design a scalable approach for future validation and implementation at other sites. The MDP model that books multi-priority patients with varying resource requirements to a single resource will incorporate the ability to reschedule patients, implement overtime and mitigate against cancellations and no-shows. NextUp Care believes that by connecting hospitals, physicians and patients on a common platform, it can optimize scheduling for diagnostic imaging services and reduce average wait times for patients in Ontario (and Canada).
