Table 5. Accumulated waiting times (minutes) in new Discrete Event Simulation Models after adjusting for additional steps and other changes in operational factors before and after integration (where PITC indicates Provider Initiated HIV Testing and Counseling).
Scenarios | ART Patient Accumulated Waiting Time | OPD Patient Accumulated Waiting Time |
0. Pre-integration (with pre-integration parameters, no PITC and no added resources) | 86 | 85 |
1. Post-integration (with pre-integration parameters, no PITC and no added resources) | 80 | 53 |
2. Post-integration (with pre-integration parameters, PITC and 3 additional resources) | 105 | 136 |
3. Post-integration (with post-integration parameters, PITC and 3 additional resources) | 128 | 117 |
