Understand the impact on demand, activity, cost, capacity and waiting time of strategic changes you make in your healthcare organization. From modeling the impact of change across organizational boundaries to staff and workforce planning SIMUL8 can help you to deliver on the Triple Aim of quality of care,cost and better health for populations.
Simulation can be used for both strategic and operational decision making in healthcare organizations. With simulation you can test a change in any part of the system, see the outcome, and use the evidence to support strategic decision making and the planning, financing and design of new models of care.
With simulation software, you can finally get a handle on how value-based payment programs, evolving patient insurance status, aging demographics, and clinical interventions will come together for your organization.
This allows you to ensure that you have evidence for change, know what resource is required and ensures you deliver on the triple aim of quality of care, cost and better health for populations.
SIMUL8 has three simulation products that can support decision making for healthcare organizations.
Many strategic healthcare decisions are simulated using Scenario Generator - our simulation tool which enables you to model a population and demand into health services across a community and to experiment at a high level with "what if?" scenarios to understand impacts of change across organizational boundaries by simulating patient journeys through different care providers in primary, community services and hospitals.
Strategic planning is important to simulate at an operational level too and SIMUL8 Professional is required where strategic questions need to take into account the variation in demand on a daily and hourly basis on different healthcare provider organizations.
Simulation can be used to support decision making in many areas of Strategic Planning from future service provision to spatial design to help manage risk and test contingency plans for now and the future.
Simulation can be used to tackle key population health issues to deliver on quality of care, cost and better health for populations.

Read moreSimulation can be used to improve staff utilization levels and increase service levels for patients.
Read moreBy using simulation to think about how people move through the space, how equipment is used, the processes taking place, you can test alternatives and find the best possible layout.
Read moreUsing simulation you can ensure supplies function effectively and are available, at the right time and at the right quality to ensure the service is efficient and achieves the best patient outcomes.
