Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the preliminary effects of a Traditronal Chinese Medicine(TCM)incentive policy aimed at the number of discharge patients on the synergistic improvement of performance assessment indicators in the Traditional Chinese Hospital.Methods It selected detailed data from the first page of medical records at the grade A teritary hospital from October,2018 to October,2021.Using the Interrupted Time Series analysis method,two breakpoints were taken as the start time of COVID-19(December 2019)and the official implementation time of dis-charge performance program(September 2020).The utilization rate of TCM decoction pieces among discharged pa-tients,the utilization rate of TCM non-drug therapy among discharged patients,the proportion of discharged pa-tients mainly treated with TCM,and the proportion of inpatient medical service income before and after the break-point were analyzed.Results Despite the impact of COVID-19,after the policy was implemented,four key indicators showed a positive growth trend:the proportion of discharged patients treated primarily with TCM,the rate of TCM decoction use among discharged patients,the rate of TCM non-pharmaceutical therapy use among discharged pa-tients,and the proportion of medical service income,respectively.Conclusion The introduction of a TCM reward module in the discharge performance bonus plan of the sample hospital effectively stimulated the enthusiasm of medical staff in applying TCM.The utilization rate of TCM decoction slices,the utilization rate of TCM non-drug therapy,the proportion of discharged patients treated mainly by TCM and the proportion of medical service income all showed an upward trend,indicating that the incentive policy of TCM has a positive impact on the national examination index of TCM hospitals.
