Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the technical efficiency and scale efficiency of non-public hospitals in China to provide references for improving efficiency of non-public hospitals with the comparison with the differences among different non-public hospitals with different types.Methods:Input and output data of 160 non-public hospitals in 2014 were collected;C2R and BC2 models were adopted to evaluate the annual total efficiency,technique efficiency and scale efficiency.Results:There were 16 total efficient hospitals(10.00％),41 technical efficiency hospitals(25.63％) and 20 scale efficiency(12.50％),43 at IRS stage,99 at DRS stage.Conclusion:The overall efficiency of non-public hospitals was low relatively and most of them were lower than public hospitals at same level.Scale was an important factor affecting the efficiency of non-public hospitals.
