Abstract :
In order to maintain the effectiveness of healthcare delivery, the location of the facilities providing the service to the public is very crucial. It is to ensure that the chosen location network and its demand allocation serve the purpose of minimising social cost or equivalently maximising the benefits of the people. This study will accommodate the changes of demand in time, the need to upgrade the network capacity and the condition of existing facilities into a dynamic conditional location allocation model. Using the new model, a case study is presented.
