英文摘要	The mismatching patient flow distribution in the health care system in urban China is a great social issue that attracts lots of public attention. In this research, we propose a simulation-based optimisation method using the multi-fidelity optimisation with ordinal transformation (OT) and optimal sampling (OS) ((MOTOS)-T-2) algorithm to evaluate the patient flow distribution, so as to continuously improve the hierarchical health care service system. The low-fidelity model applying the queueing network theory is constructed for the OT part of the (MOTOS)-T-2, followed by a high-fidelity but time-consuming discrete event simulation model for the OS part. An empirical study on the background of the hierarchical health care delivery system in China is presented, where the proposed (MOTOS)-T-2 method is implemented to optimise the system profit by guiding the patient flow distribution. Acomparison with other widely used simulation optimisationmethods sustains the efficacy of the (MOTOS)-T-2 with the evidence that acquiring effective information from the low-fidelity model indeed retrenches the computing budget used to explore the feasible domain.; National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) [71301003]; Specialized Research Fund for the Doctoral Programme of Higher Education (SRFDPH) [20130001120007]; SCI(E); EI; ARTICLE; songjie@coe.pku.edu.cn; 21,SI; 6478-6493; 54
