Abstract. A simulation model of the patient flow for estimating the load of a specialized medical center is developed using empirical data, as well as simulating discrete events, and queuing theory. The results of the simulation demonstrate an inverse relationship between the rate of arrival of patients and their number, and show that the pooling of all resources into one common fund is not always a solution to reduce the burden on a particular department.
