Definition of index weight for the performance evaluation system of public hospital financial governance / 中国卫生政策研究

ABSTRACT

The index weight has very significant role in the performance evaluation system for the public hospitals’ financial governance. This paper employed the analytic hierarchy process associated with the Delphi method to determine the index weight based on the previous studies. The index of maximum weight is non-profit (0. 35), fol-lowed closely by financial responsibility(0. 18), asset performance(0. 18), financial performance and risk (0. 18), and the index of minimum weight is society satisfaction ( 0 . 06 ) . The index weight guidance and the practical index system application were also interpreted in order to really play the significant role during the performance evaluation for the public hospitals’ financial governance.
