Scenario Generator - Simulation Software for Strategic Healthcare Planning

Scenario Generator is the first and only simulation software tool for strategic planning that enables design and simulation of care pathways within whole health and social care systems. This supports strategic decision-making and the planning, commissioning and design of new models of care.

Scenario Generator has been developed through a public-private partnership between SIMUL8 Corporation, the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement and a number of NHS Partners in the UK.

Scenario Generator is designed to:

• Replicate the existing service configuration and care pathways in a health system
  
• Enable scenarios to be developed that reflect changes in population, health prevalence, service configuration and capacity, and models of care
  
• Through simulation runs on those scenarios, examine the impact of those changes on flow, capacity, end-to-end transaction times (including delays and waits) and cost across the whole system
  
• indicate where changes to one pathway might have impacts elsewhere in the whole system

Why is it important

Simulating existing and new models of healthcare can help the NHS to anticipate and plan for the impact of changing demands, to design more efficient and effective care pathways and to make more informed strategic decisions about the future of the healthcare system.
