description |
Hospitals are the most essential and
most costly component of health systems. They account for up
to two-thirds of health spending. As a result, they greatly
influence the overall quality of health care. As governments
search for the best ways to monitor and evaluate hospital
performance, policy-makers must identify the best ways to
maximize hospital outcomes, patient satisfaction, and
operational efficiency. Recent increases in healthcare costs
have generated a number of proposals for the organization of
publicly financed hospitals. These include new management
models, new payment systems and clinical guidelines and
disease treatment protocols inspired by evidence-based guidelines. |
