Abstract

Objective To evaluate the professional competency of the clinicians with DRGs indexes. Methods The homepages of medical records of the hospital from January to June in 2018 were extracted, and the conventional evaluation indexes (i.e. percentage of drug expenditure, percentage of medical consumables expenditure, and percentage of antimicrobials application) of each clinician were obtained. CN-DRGs burster was used to calculate the DRGs indexes. The weighted RSR was applied to evaluate the professional competency of the resident physicians. Results A comprehensive evaluation of the professional competency of 438 resident clinicians was conducted. 218, 190, and 30 clinicians fell into excellent, medium and poor categories respectively. The results of ANOVA showed that the differences of the 3 categories were significant (F=664.863, P<0.001). Conclusions The evaluation of clinicians′ professional competency based on DRGs was reasonable, objective and feasible, proving its importance for the establishment of a scientific and standardized clinicians evaluation system. Key words: Diagnosis-related groups; Physicians; Professional competency of the clinicians; Weighted rank-sum ratio; Comprehensive evaluation
