ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The analysis of efficiency represents an area of growing interest in the field of public management. Hospital efficiency depends mainly on the use that the institution makes of its resources and their cost. The importance of hospital efficiency studies is justified by the fact that health spending is the second most important item of public spending. The objective of the present study focused on the analysis of the degree of efficiency with which the public hospitals of Castilla y León were managed. METHODS: The scope of the research was limited to the 14 hospitals of the Public Health Service of Castilla y León (Sacyl), taking the five-year period 2014-2018 as the study period. For the analysis, the non-parametric technique of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was used. Both constant returns to scale (CRS) and variable returns to scale (VRS) have been used, calculating the global technical efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency for each health institution. RESULTS: The grouped results showed that the global technical efficiency (GTE) had reached an average of 92.02%, the pure technical efficiency (PTE) 94.10% and the scale efficiency (EE) 97.74%. CONCLUSIONS: The DEA is presented as a valid technique for analyzing the efficiency of hospitals, with the efficiency of all groups of hospitals (groups I, III and IV) being very similar in terms of PTE, around 97%, with the exception of group II hospitals that are the least efficient.


OBJETIVO: El análisis de la eficiencia representa un área de creciente interés en el ámbito de la gestión pública, siendo además el gasto sanitario la segunda partida más importante del gasto público. La eficiencia hospitalaria depende principalmente del uso que la institución haga de sus recursos y del coste de los mismos. El objetivo del presente trabajo se centró en el análisis del grado de eficiencia con el que se gestionaban los hospitales públicos de Castilla y León. METODOS: El ámbito de la investigación se circunscribió a los catorce hospitales del Servicio Público de Salud de Castilla y León (Sacyl) durante el quinquenio 2014-2018. Se empleó la técnica no paramétrica del Análisis Envolvente de Datos (DEA), utilizándose tanto rendimientos constantes a escala (CRS) como rendimientos variables a escala (VRS), calculando la eficiencia técnica global, la eficiencia técnica pura y la eficiencia de escala para cada institución sanitaria. RESULTADOS: Los resultados agrupados mostraron que la eficiencia técnica global (ETG) alcanzó un promedio de un 92,02%, la eficiencia técnica pura (ETP) un 94,10% y la eficiencia de escala (EE) un 97,74%. CONCLUSIONES: El DEA se presenta como una técnica válida para el análisis de la eficiencia de los hospitales siendo, en términos de ETP, muy semejante la eficiencia de todos los grupos de hospitales (grupos I, III y IV), en torno al 97%, a excepción de los hospitales del grupo II que resultan los menos eficientes.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La carga de enfermedad por neumonía en adultos mayores supone un impacto de gran magnitud en los sistemas de salud. El objetivo de este trabajo es realizar una evaluación económica de la estrategia de vacunación frente a Streptococcus pneumoniae mediante la vacuna neumocócica conjugada 13-valente frente a la no vacunación. Material y métodos: Se ha desarrollado un modelo económico simulado en forma de árbol de decisión para evaluar el coste/efectividad de la estrategia de vacunación en la cohorte de población mayor de 65 años del Área de Salud de Valladolid-Este versus no vacunación mediante un análisis probabilístico de Monte Carlo. Resultados: Streptococcus pneumoniae origina anualmente en el Área de Salud Valladolid-Este un total de 557,24 casos de enfermedad neumocócica, de los cuales 506,60 episodios son cuadros neumónicos. A partir del tercer año, la vacunación a la población mayor de 65 años es una medida eficiente, con un coste por años de vida ajustados por calidad (AVAC) de 20.496,20 Euros. El número de AVAC ganados en una década es de 86,07 y se evitaría el gasto de 216.252,89 Euros con esta estrategia vacunal. Conclusiones: La evaluación de los diferentes costes incrementales (AVAC y euros) en los años de seguimiento pone de manifiesto que el programa de vacunación frente al neumococo a personas mayores de 65 años en Castilla y León es una medida coste eficiente


Introduction: The burden of disease due to pneumonia in older adults has a major impact on health systems. The aim of this study is to carry out an economic evaluation of the vaccination strategy against Streptococcus pneumoniae using the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine. Material and methods: A simulated economic model has been developed in the form of a decision tree to evaluate the cost of the vaccination strategy in the population over 65 years of the Valladolid-East Health Area, versus non-vaccination, using a Monte Carlo probabilistic analysis. Results: Streptococcus pneumoniae annually generates 557.24 cases of pneumococcal disease in the Valladolid-East Health Area, and 506.60 episodes have pneumonia symptoms. Vaccination of the cohort over 65 years of age is an efficient measure from the third year, with a cost per quality-adjusted life years (QALY) of 20,496.20 Euros. The number of QALYs gained in a decade is 86.07 and an amount of 216.252.89 Euros with this vaccination strategy would be saved. Conclusions: The evaluation of the different incremental costs (QALY,euros) in the years of follow-up, the pneumococcus vaccination program in people over 65 in Castilla y León is cost-effective
