Abstract:
Objective:To form the workload relative value of 10 general surgery projects in Anhui province based on the theoretical framework of resource-based relative value scale(RBRVS).Methods:Cluster sampling was used to identify the 12 county-level public hospitals surveyed from July to August 2019; Expert consultation method was used to select the benchmark project of general surgery and the measured projects; Magnitude estimation was used by doctors surveyed to find the relative evaluation of the surgeries selected, and RBRVS principle was used to find surgeon workload relative value of the 10 surgeries; Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the charging price of surgeries and the relative value of surgeons′ workload in Anhui province.Results:The study found the time consumption, work intensity relative value and surgeon work load relative value of 10 general surgeries; The relative value of the current surgical item price was positively correlated with the relative value of the doctor′s workload, and the correlation coefficient was r=0.928, P<0.01(bilateral). But in some surgeries, the pricing fails to represent the relative value of the workload. Conclusions:Based on RBRVS theory, 10 localized relative value scales of general surgeons′ workload were developed via empirical studies from such dimensions as time consumption, mental labor, physical labor and risk stress; Pearson′s correlation analysis found part of the pricing in general surgeries as groundless.
