Abstract:
Objective Analysis of roadblocks found in the reform of performance-based salary mechanism in public hospitals, along with recommendations for the implementation strategies. Methods Both the historical document method and qualitative method are called into play to identify the characteristics and measures for performance-based salary mechanism in public hospitals. Results Such roadblocks are mostly found in value measurement of the hospital services of welfare nature, criteria of appraisal and establishment of the indicator system, job evaluation and the extent of incentives to use. The authors hold that such reforms should go in parallel with the reform, development, management level upgrading, and cultural building of the hospitals, and should call into play roles of intermediacies. Conclusion Reform for performance-based salary mechanism will be inevitable in public hospitals, as it has a direct bearing on the mission and functionality of public hospitals.
