Specimen Referral Network to Rapidly Scale-Up CD4 Testing: The Hub and Spoke Model for Haiti.
OBJECTIVES Regular and quality CD4 testing is essential to monitor disease progression in people living with HIV. In Haiti, most laboratories have limited infrastructure and financial resources and have relied on manual laboratory techniques. We report the successful implementation of a national specimen referral network to rapidly increase patient coverage with quality CD4 testing while at the...
متن کاملA Multi-Level Capacity Approach to the Hub and Spoke Network
The existing works considering the flow-based discount factor in the hub and spoke problems, assume that increasing the amount of flow passing through each edge of network continuously decreases the unit flow transportation cost. Although a higher volume of flow allows for using wider links and consequently cheaper transportation, but the unit of flow enjoys more discounts, quite like replacing...
متن کاملA Hybrid Solution Method for Hub-and-Spoke Network Design under Uncertainty
Supply chain is an integrated system of facilities and activities. Gaining the optimum design of demand satisfaction network is one of the most important live issues in the decision making problems category. Most of previous studies considered unreal assumptions such as the lack of capacity constraints to satisfy demand in the network and in hubs. By considering the nature of the case that have...

متن کاملOn the Hub-and-spoke Model with Arc Capacity Conatraints
In this paper, we present a new formulation of one-stop capacitated hub-and-spoke model as a natural extension of the uncapacitated one-stop model. The model involves arc capacity constraints as well as hub capacity constraints, which enables us to incorporate some practical factors into the model. We also present a branch-and-bound based exact solution method with Lagrangian relaxation boundin...
