Abstract

The present process of health care development has been characterized by several features, one of which is the increase in the amount and variety of needed personnel, beds and other resources. Because of this, more and more people have become involved in the decision making process in the various levels of the health care system.

In order to deal with this increasing number of decision makers, it is necessary to review their functions and problems, and to develop new technologies for the decision making process. Models are one of the prime means for aiding the decision maker in the management process and if properly applied can be of great benefit in the solution of many of the problems that arise today in health care systems.
