Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the current organizational capacity and maturity of private hospitals in China, in references improving their organizational capacity and promoting their sustainable development.Methods:The purposive sampling method was used from May to November 2019, and private hospitals of continuous operation for 5 years or above were selected for a questionnaire survey. Self-evaluation was made on the organization capacity of these hospitals in such 12 aspects as positioning, normalization, decision making, execution, supervision, marketing, coerciveness, risk exposure, innovation, learning capacity and leadership. Based on existing models, five levels of maturity models from low to high were established, namely that of business in difficulty, that of basic stable operation, that of stable development, that of expanding business, and that of independent branding.Factor analysis was used for structural efficiency analysis, the questionnaires were subject to a descriptive analysis, and a maturity scoring was obtained based on self-evaluation of organizational capacity.Results:A total of 45 non-public hospitals were investigated in this study, and 450 valid questionnaires were recovered. The factor analysis classified the organizational capacity into basic capacity, core capacity and development capacity. The organizational capability of the hospitals scored in average 4.14 points; the development capacity scoring(3.87 points) was lower than basic capacity(4.16 points) and core capacity(4.06 points). 80% of the private hospitals were in the basic stable stage or stable development stage.Conclusions:Private hospitals feature in general lower maturity, good basic capacity and core capacity, while they tend to have weak development capacity, not to mention innovation and construction of learning organizations.
