The healthcare system can be hierarchical in nature. There is a linkage between the different levels, which makes it hard to solve the location problems for each level of this system separately. This system may consist of primary health centers, regional health centers, and hospitals. A growing body of evidence reveals the importance of primary care to health of societies. Hence, all countries should provide efficient, effective, timely, and fair basic health services. This may consist of primary health centers, regional health centers, and hospitals. The aim of this research is designing a three-level health service network. To touch this purpose, we deem each candidate location as a decision-making unit, then calculate the efficiency score of this location based on the Non-Radial RAM method. In this paper, a bi-objective mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model introduced for a hierarchical three-level health service network design problem. The first objective function minimizes total transportation time from patient zones to each level. The second objective function seeks to maximize efficiency by selecting more efficient locations. We use the augmented e-constraint method (AUGMECON2) to solve the bi-objective mathematical model. To prove the applicability and validity of the proposed decision model, we provided a real case study in the city of Tehran. The results of the suggested model or show that there is a conflict between objectives. Besides, the impact of the referral parameter on the flow of patients in the system, it is clear.
