An approach to the construction of the model imitating the processes of servicing the population in outpatient clinics is discussed. The algorithm describing the formation of queues before different reception rooms in the outpatient clinic is devised. The approximation of the patient waiting time functional is proposed, and the hypothesis of its convexity in the space of the functions connecting the properties of the structural elements of the outpatient service with the cost of their technical equipment is put forward. The problem on the optimization of the technical equipment of the services and reception rooms of the outpatient clinic under the conditions of the limited total amount of these costs is defined.
