Abstract:
In the era of the new healthcare reform, high-quality cost accounting can effectively enhance the business performance of public hospitals. Compared with single-campus hospitals, the cost accounting of multi-campus hospitals is faced with greater complexity and challenges. The authors analyzed cost accounting problems found in the latter, namely the lack of top-level design in the construction of a fine multi-campus cost accounting system, difficulty of reasonable collection and allocation of various costs, lack of strong information support, outdated research methods used in item cost accounting among others, as well as their causes. On such basis, the authors put forward countermeasures for high-quality cost accounting in multi-campus hospitals, for the purpose of fully leveraging the leadership of cost control in the high-quality development of public hospitals.
