School of Business OTM Presentation
An Econometric Analysis of Patient Flows in the Cardiac ICU

- Time 9:30 a.m.
- Location3070 Grainger Hall
- DescriptionDiwas KC, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, delivers this presentation exploring the rationing of bed capacity in a cardiac intensive care unit (ICU). The claim is that the length of stay for patients admitted to the ICU is influenced by the occupancy level of the ICU. In particular, a patient is likely to be discharged early when the occupancy in the ICU is high. This in turn leads to an increased likelihood of the patient having to be readmitted to the ICU at a later time.
