title = "Preliminary evaluation of market mechanism-based bed allocation system",
abstract = "Effective bed management is important for hospital management. Until now, bed allocation process is generally controlled by administrative staffs in centralized manner but it is not always effective. In the present study, we proposed and evaluated new method for bed allocation applying market mechanism via token. Evaluation was performed with newly-developed game-type simulation. Nurse managers as research participants played it and answered for survey. The result showed that the proposed method can be useful with appropriate operational design.",
