OPTIMIZED SURGERY SCHEDULING

Techniques for generating optimized surgery schedules are described in various implementations. In one example implementation, a method that implements the techniques includes receiving a plurality of surgery scheduling requests for surgical procedures to be performed at a surgical facility having a plurality of operating rooms. The method also includes identifying resource constraints associated with the surgery scheduling requests, and identifying an optimization goal for the surgical facility, the optimization goal being defined using weighted optimization parameters. The method also includes generating a proposed surgery schedule for the surgical facility that includes sequencing and operating room assignments for each of the surgical procedures to be performed, the proposed surgery schedule satisfying the resource constraints and being optimized based on the optimization goal for the surgical facility. The method also includes simulating the proposed surgery schedule to determine expected operational metrics associated with the proposed surgery schedule.
