Hospital processes are getting more and more complex, starting from the creation of therapy plans over intra-hospital transportation up to the coordination of patients and staff members. In this paper, multi-agent simulations will be used to optimize the coordination of different kinds of individuals (like patients and doctors) in a hospital process. But instead of providing results in form of optimized schedules, here, behavioral rules for the different individuals will be learned from the simulations, that can be exploited by the individuals to optimize the overall process. As a proof-of-concept, the approach will be demonstrated in different variants of a hospital optimization scenario, also showing its robustness to several changes in the scenario.
