Research on target management of 21 medical institutions in Anhui province

Abstract

Objective To understand the status quo of the target management assessment of medical institutions in Anhui province, and provide a basis for further improving the performance appraisal mechanism and strategy of medical institutions. Methods In June 2017, 21 medical institutions in Anhui province conducted a questionnaire survey on the setup and implementation of target management indicators. Results Among the 21 medical institutions, there were 2, 16 and 3 hospitals in the first, second and third grades respectively.The average number of available beds was 681.35, and the average time for conducting target assessment was 4.42 years.The coverage rates of the clinical departments, medical technology departments, efficiency and efficiency, scientific research teaching, and department management of 21 medical institutions were 80%(316/397), 84%(52/63), 71%(120/168), 38%(48/126) and 60%(61/102)respectively.There were significant differences in coverage rates between clinical departments, medical technology departments, efficiency and efficiency, and research and teaching in different levels of medical institutions(P<0.05). Judging from the effectiveness of the current target assessment, it was considered that 64%(37/78)of the overall assessment results of the departments were in line with expectations, and the ratio of target management to hospital development management, department quality management, and functional department execution was 75%(42/64). Conclusions The status quo of performance assessment of medical institutions in Anhui province is running well, but the target management indicators and models of different medical institutions are different.It is necessary for the health administrators to establish a unified, authoritative and standard target performance assessment system.
