The current pandemic of COVID-19 has caused significant strain on medical center resources, which are the main plac healthcare managers to make an effective assignment plan for the patients and telemedical doctors when providing telemedicine services. Motivated by this, we present the first comprehensive study of a two-stage robust telemedicine assignment problem when three different sources of uncertainty are incorporated, including uncertain service duration, no-show behaviours of both patients and telemedical doctors. From an algorithmic viewpoint, we propose an efficient nested column-and-constraint generation (C&CG) solution scheme that decomposes the model into an outer level problem and an inner level problem.
