Fig. 7
Simulated annual working time flow per cadre category in two health care seeking scenarios. The overall height of each diagram reflects the annual total working time required in each scenario, and the width of each flow reflects the proportion of working time required for each cadre by each disease module. The total working time in Maximal health care seeking scenario (7.14 × 10^9 minutes per year) is approximately 3.23 times of the Default scenario (2.21 × 10^9 minutes per year). Note that each disease module here represents a group of relevant diagnosis and treatment HSI events. Particularly, the “FirstAttendance” module represents HSI events that capture the first contact of a person seeking health care from the healthcare system, and the “Inpatient” module represents HSIs that specify the needs of inpatient care
