Abstract:
Starting from the idea that in the public hospitals in Romania, in time, was
formed an ever-increasing gap in terms of funding, we performed an analysis to
identify whether the level of funding for similar hospital services depends on
the costs incurred by treatment with the same type of patient. Analysis of the
correlation between the complexity of diagnoses treated and quantitative indicators
of a hospital allowed us to identify how these parameters aff ect fi nally effi ciency
and performance of the hospital. Our approach used advanced statistical analysis
to study four hospitalized morbidity indicators based on diagnostic groups (number
of patients discharged, average length of stay, number of days of hospitalization
and case-mix index) and an indicator of organizational structure of the hospital
(number of beds) for the 61 municipal hospitals in Romania in 2013.
