RBRVS-based performance appraisal: application at a hospital / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

With the resource based relative value scale (RBRVS) application at a hospital cited as an example, the paper covered its use in performance appraisal for optimal performance-based distribution as follows. In view of hospital specifics, such appraisal indexes as the quantity, quality, technical difficulty and cost control are quantified as key indicators, to form its own RBRVS scores and weights. In combination of the case mixed index as well, such factors as specific appraisal, quality of care and research/teaching work are taken into account for the purpose of rational and optimal pay for performance.
