Data on Average Length Of Stay (ALOS), Bed Occupancy Rate (BOR) and Bed Turn Over (BTO). Data collected from 2011-2014 based on medical record.Result: The overall average length of stay and bed turn over represents a satisfactory level of efficiency. ALOS 2-3 days and BTO 42-47 times. KMC hospital located in Zone II because BOR only 28-31%. This study represents good satisfactory level of efficiency KMC demonstrated, short stay, high turnover but low occupancy.Discussion: This study showed the KMC hospital has generally high performance as indicated by Pabon Lasso Analysis.
