Read in the white paper about the application areas of workflow simulation technology in the healthcare sector and uncover the positive impact on multiple stakeholders. Learn about the use cases through different customer success stories and discover the main benefits of implementing this technology.
Digital twins – virtualized presentations of facilities and processes – have emerged as powerful tools not only for manufacturing of products but also for healthcare providers and the layout of their hospitals. Simulating workflows using a digital twin can help healthcare enterprises identify ways to enhance and streamline processes, improve patient experience, lower operating costs, and increase higher value of care. The digital twin creates models of physical spaces and processes. Then, cost and quality optimization parameters are examined and ultimately selected based on the insights gained from simulations. These insights can be further enhanced with complimentary technologies like Real-Time Locating Solutions (RTLS), which provides a robust data source and a means to test changes in layout, process, etc.
The key to success of simulating workflows leveraging digital twin models is a strong partnership between the hospital and a technology provider who understands the clinical, workflow, and financial imperatives of healthcare providers. Siemens Healthineers creates Value Partnerships with provider organizations in order to help them create value and optimize care delivery.

To invest into the future, Rode Kruis Ziekenhuis Beverwijk decided to upgrade their radiology department with a new Siemens Healthineers MRI scanner. In order to address their challenges such as: increase patient throughput, avoid scans after opening hours and reduce staff overtime, they decided to proof beforehand which layout works best.
