Abstract

Significant advances in the field of medical care management are observed in the recent years. The theory of goal programming (GP) can be used as an effective tool, particularly in the area of intelligent modeling and solution analysis. This paper studies a goal programming model for maximizing the profit of the hospital by determining maximum distribution of resources to patients.
