Si l ti Vi t l P l tiSimulating a Virtual Population
Scenario Generator• Simulating a virtual population and disease g
related demand• Through care pathways• To understand the impact of population and
disease, and likely changes to the healthcare environment on expected activityenvironment on expected activity
• To test “what if” scenarios

What is Simulation?
A technique that aims to imitate abstract andA technique that aims to imitate, abstract and represent a system, process or behaviour for specific analytical, decision support or learning purposes

Why simulate?
• It can help to take you beyond a process map into potential impacts of implementation
• It aids understanding of complex systems• You might discover unanticipated consequences of a plan• It should help to inform decisions
BUT• Simulation won’t tell you the answer, but it will help you ask
better questions• It will only be as good as the data you put in, but it will help
you make sense of that data• All models are wrong but some are useful• All models are wrong, but some are useful• It will not be an accurate predictor of events, but it might be
better to be “broadly right than precisely wrong”y g y g

Objectives of the ScenarioObjectives of the Scenario Generator
The ability to model scenarios based upon local population,The ability to model scenarios based upon local population,prevalence of disease and pathways of care, and to simulate their operation to:make more informed strategic decisions and planning choicesoptimise throughput, end-to-end transaction time, cost reduction and
ili iresource utilisationanticipate effects that changes to a particular model of care might
have upon a whole healthcare system and that might otherwise havehave upon a whole healthcare system and that might otherwise have been overlookedbetter understand the response of the health system to changes inbetter understand the response of the health system to changes in
population, disease prevalence, service capacity, configuration and demand

Simulating Population Growth
• Scenarios can be modelled for population growthp p g• SG ages the population year on year adding births and taking away
deathsP j ti f ti ll i d i ti t b d ll d i• Projections function allows inward migration to be modelled in addition to natural population growth
• Changes to the health system care pathways can be modelled withinChanges to the health system care pathways can be modelled within same scenarios
• ….any number of “what if” scenarios

Where is it being used?
![Page 19: Simulation for Strategic Planning – the Scenariothe ...](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012012/6156fa2fa097e25c764fa1b7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Current uses…
The resource impact and capacity requirements of new models of care:
• population growth
t ti it l• testing capacity plans
• viability of existing hospital services as a result of shift to iprimary care
• care pathways (incl. falls, stroke, major trauma)
• remodelling unscheduled care
• admission avoidance/intermediate care• admission avoidance/intermediate care
• polyclinics

Link to Spatial Implications
• SG results expressed in terms of activity by individual pathway p y y p ysteps, and aggregated steps and costs (with inflation)
• Users need to be able to translate this into potential requirement for estates and workforceestates and workforce
• Currently developing work with UEL and HUDU to understand results in terms of spatial requirements
