Analysis of Arrival Data from an Endocrinology Clinic Song-Hee Kim, Ponni Vel, Ward Whitt, and Won Chul Cha January 7, 2 Abstract Queueing models of service systems typically assume that the arrival process is a non-homogeneous Poisson process (NHPP). Kim and Whitt [24] previously tested that hypothesis for arrival data from a call center, and concluded that the data were indeed consistent with an NHPP within each day, but found significant over-dispersion over multiple days. Kim et al. [24] provides data analysis of arrival data from an endrocrinology clinic where arrivals are by appointment, and apply the same statistical methods of Kim and Whitt (24). Despite the intended deterministic pattern, the appointment-generated arrival data are also consistent with an NHPP within a single day, but now there is significant under-dispersion over multiple days. This appendix provides additional materials for the main paper.

Overview We present supporting material in this document to the main paper [Kim et al. 24]; the main paper has data analysis for only one doctor, and this document provides the results for all of the 6 doctors. Here is how this document is organized: In 2 we introduce our study data from an endocrinology outpatient clinic and discuss discuss different schedules of 6 doctors. In 4, we compare each doctor s scheduled arrivals and actual arrivals, show the presence of no-shows and early and late arrivals, and conduct statistical tests that show the arrivals are consistent with a PP within shifts. We substantiate under-dispersion over multiple days in. 2 The Study Data The appointment arrival data are from an endocrinology outpatient clinic of a major teaching hospital in South Korea, collected over a 3-wesek period from July 23 to September 23. Sixteen doctors work in this clinic and patients arrive to the clinic knowing which doctor they will meet; hence, each doctor operates as a single-server system. Each doctor works in a subset of available days and shifts. There are three shifts: morning (am) shifts, roughly from 8:3 am to 2:3 pm, afternoon (pm) shifts, roughly from 2:3 pm to 4:3 pm, and full-day shifts. During the weekdays of the 3-week study period, the 6 doctors worked for a total of 228 am shifts, 22 pm shifts, 2 full-day shifts. The shifts are not evenly distributed among the doctors; the numbers ranged from to 46. Given the small number of full-day shifts, this documents will focus on am and pm shifts from now on. 3
