Preference-based physician scheduling in hospitals
- As hospitals need to be staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, schedules need to be created to ensure adequate physician coverage. Good schedules respect physician preferences, equal workload distribution, legal requirements, and physician training. Due to the multitude of these constraints, finding a good schedule is a complex task. This thesis builds on the existing literature and explores new approaches to physician scheduling. First, it proposes a model to adapt existing physician schedules in case of unexpected absences. Second, it explores how long-term equal preference fulfillment among all physicians on the schedule can be achieved. Third, it investigates the trade-off between long-term equal preference fulfillment and long-term equal workload distribution.
