ABSTRACT
To verify the feasibility of key performance indicators (KPI) evaluating model of public institution based on the analyzed results of KPI of Institute of Chinese Materia Medica of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences. Establishing KPI evaluating model according to scientific research characteristics of public institution. Indicators of flexibility can guarantee the dynamic adjustment with strategic goals of public institutions, and the accurancy and convenience of data collection. The KPI model of Institute of Chinese Materia Medica of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences has showed the justic and effecient for the work performance to motivate the staff. The KPI evaluating model has showed the good operability.
ABSTRACT
Presented in the paper are the Patient Clinical Complexity Level(PCCL)and Episode Clinical Complexity(ECC)models as used in Australia.Comparison of the differences between ECC model and PCCL model,and a replacement of ECC model of PCCL model in measurement of disease complexity,points the way for localized scheme design in China.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To put forward some suggestions for the national health development in the filed of health expenditure indicators .Methods:Two health expenditure indicators and four health outcomes indicators were chosen from WB and WHO official websites , and researches on the relationship between health expenditure and outcomes were conducted .We put forward proposed value of the health cost indicator .Results: With different levels of GDP per capita , the scatter diagram of health expenditure and GDP per capita had different rules .When health outcomes were taken into consideration , the rules were the same .When GDP per capita was at different level , better health outcomes were not related to higher health expenditure .Input-output ratio should be taken into consideration fully . Suggestions:The study should be dynamic as GDP develops .More factors can be added in the research , if the data of the factors is available .In this study , the GDP per capita was divided into 4 sections .The division standard of the GDP per capita can be more delicate .What is more important for the development of health expenditure is not contin-uing input , but better input-output ratio because of diminishing of marginal returns .One set of standards cannot be a-dapted to all countries and districts .We should give full consideration to the improvement of people's health instead of increasing input because the ultimate goal is the former .
ABSTRACT
Objective To grasp the development of private hospitals of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) from a macro level;To provide reference for stakeholders by analyzing the underlying database of TCM private hospitals. Methods By analyzing the TCM database of hospital health agency annual statement from“National Health Statistical Investigation System”, current status of TCM private hospitals were analyzed from the aspects of organization, personnel, beds, number of service, and patient burden. The developing level of TCM was reflected by comparison with public hospitals. Results By the end of 2013, there were 938 TCM private hospitals, accounting for about 26.13% of TCM hospitals. Average annual growth rate of beds, health technicians, outpatient visits, and discharged patients exceeded 10%, while the hospital degree, bed utilization ratio, physician burden, and average length of stay for discharge patients were only 70%of TCM public hospitals. Conclusion TCM private hospitals have achieved rapid development in the number of these indicators, but the service efficiency, scale and level are still far behind TCM public hospitals.
