Modeling is the major necessity to enhance the existing systems. Healthcare systems also need to model for#R##N##R##N#advancing delivered services without compromising any other objectives. Thus, simulation techniques are#R##N##R##N#frequently preferred in healthcare problems. As was to be expected, simulation has various applications#R##N##R##N#which yields result in different perspectives. This study discusses two popular simulation techniques;#R##N##R##N#discrete event simulation and system dynamics techniques in healthcare system applications. The#R##N##R##N#applications are examined under four main branches based on their scopes. As a result, this paper evaluates#R##N##R##N#which of these simulation techniques is more practical for different natured healthcare problems.
