Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficiency of health resource allocation in 22 types of hospital institutions in Guangdong Province from 2018 to 2022,identify their strengths and shortcomings in resource utilization,and offer evidence-based recommendations for optimizing medical resource allocation and policymaking.Methods The efficiency of health resource allocation was assessed using the DEA-BCC model and the DEA-Malmquist index model across the 22 hospital categories.Results In 2022,the overall resource allocation efficiency of the 22 types of hospital institutions in Guangdong Province was suboptimal,with an average score of 0.657.From 2018 to 2022,the mean total factor productivity(TFP)change index for these hospitals was 0.968,with only 6 categories exhibiting a TFP index exceeding 1.Conclusion The efficiency of health resource allocation in Guangdong's hospitals remains inadequate.Government authorities should enhance macro-level planning for regional resource distribution,accelerate advancements in medical technology,and establish a real-time monitoring framework.Concurrently,policy interventions and incentive mechanisms should be reinforced to ensure both scientifically sound allocation and effective utilization of medical resources.
