ABSTRACT
Objective Through combing and analyzing the existing hospital rankings in China,comparing the similarities,differences and problems of existing rankings,to improve the hospital's understanding of the ranking work,and provide reference for hospital discipline construction and development.Methods To comprehensively review and compare the major ranking of hospitals in China,such as "China's Hospital Rankings","China's Hospitals · Competitiveness Rankings","Ranking of the Best Clinical Subjects in China","China Hospitals' Science and Technology Evaluation Metrics" and "Beijing Medical Service and Key Specialist Evaluation",and to analyze from the angle of the background,characteristics,evaluation methods,evaluation dimension and so on.Results At present,the hospital rankings have their own characteristics,each with its own focus,but there is still poor accessibility of clinical data,and the evaluation index of patients' medical experience and educational work are not perfect.Conclusions The hospital ranking list is a third-party evaluation tool to promote the construction of hospital disciplines effectively.It is recommended that all relevant organizations or departments further improve the construction of the ranking system,build big data platforms for hospital evaluation,improve the data accessibility of clinical medical quality and safety indicators,build scientific and objective dynamic evaluation systems,and carry out multi-level,multi-dimensional and continuous hospital ranking work.
ABSTRACT
Objective Purpose to evaluate hospital scientific competition by analyzing the evaluative index system of scientific competition in these hospital ranking lists.Methods This paper took four main scientific competitive rankings in China as examples,analyzed their data sources,evaluation methods,indicators of entry points and indicators focus.Meanwhile,we took four representative hospitals for instance to compare the differences between content and focus.Results According to comparison of data source,we found that datum from the scientific indicators of the four rankings were publicly available.Regarding to the evaluation methods,the ranking of Chinas best hospitals was a combination of both subjective and objective factors,while others are objectively evaluated.In terms of indicators of entry points and indicators focus,the ranking of China's best hospitals only included scientific research output (2 indexes),the competitiveness ranking of Chinese hospitals only examined academic influence (6 indexes),the ranking of China hospital's scientific and technological influence was more comprehensive,including research input,output and academic influence (17 indexes),and the China hospital index of natural indexes focused on research output indicators (2 indexes).Conclusions In order to enhance the development of hospital science and technology competitiveness,hospitals were suggested to strengthen the high-quality papers,national project declaration and high-end scarce talents.
