H-AdminSim: FHIR-Integrated Multi-Agent Simulator for Hospital Administration Workflows
A Multi-Agent Simulator for Realistic Hospital Administrative Workflows with FHIR Integration
Summary
Researchers introduced H-AdminSim, a comprehensive multi-agent simulator designed to replicate hospital administrative workflows. The system adheres to the FHIR standard, providing a standardized environment for validating LLM automation.
Details
H-AdminSim is a proposed multi-agent simulation framework designed to simulate complex outpatient hospital administrative workflows (such as scheduling, department assignment, and insurance inquiries) in large hospitals. While prior research often focused on patient-physician interactions or narrow subtasks, H-AdminSim addresses the complexity of real-world administrative processes. The system simulates various hospital scales (primary to tertiary care) and captures diverse patient backgrounds using detailed disease-symptom pairs. Crucially, it follows the Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) standard, providing an interoperable testbed for assessing administrative workflows across heterogeneous institutions. This capability allows researchers to systematically evaluate the feasibility and performance of LLM-driven automation through dialogue-based simulation, moving beyond simple API benchmarking or data transformation.
