•Red–Blue TP, a new generalization of the transportation problem is presented.•It is motivated by a patient assignment problem in hospitals.•The problem’s complexity is established and two IP formulations are given.•Three 1/2-approximation algorithms are presented for a maximization variant.•A computational study discusses performance with respect to problem characteristics. |
