Primes¶
- Planning Fallacy
- In hospital operating-room scheduling, surgeons' inside-view estimates of procedure duration run systematically low, so booking systems now draw per-surgeon, per-procedure empirical distributions — an outside-view reference replacing the simulation entirely.
This sourceDocuments systematic underestimation of surgical case durations by surgeon-schedulers, motivating empirically calibrated per-surgeon/per-procedure duration distributions in OR scheduling.
