Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Health Administration
  • Academic Finance

Background:

  • Faculty roles in medical schools increasingly prioritize clinical service and research over education.
  • Current budgeting models fail to accurately reflect the cost of medical student education due to evolving faculty responsibilities.
  • Traditional revenue and expense tracking methods obscure the true costs associated with educational missions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and describe a novel budgeting process, mission-based budgeting, designed for medical schools.
  • To detail a three-step methodology for aligning institutional revenues with specific missions and faculty productivity.
  • To present methods for developing a comprehensive database to assess faculty productivity in medical education.

Main Methods:

Related Experiment Videos

  • Implementing a three-step mission-based budgeting process: revenue identification and alignment, faculty productivity measurement, and budget-productivity linkage.
  • Developing a comprehensive database for assessing faculty effort and quality across different institutional missions.
  • Analyzing revenue streams and expenditures to accurately determine the costs associated with each mission.

Main Results:

  • The mission-based budgeting process enables accurate cost determination for educational and other institutional missions.
  • Institutions can gain a clearer understanding of revenue intent and faculty productivity across diverse roles.
  • The process supports informed investment decisions and provides justification for revenue allocation to stakeholders.

Conclusions:

  • Mission-based budgeting provides a framework for medical schools to accurately account for educational costs amidst evolving faculty responsibilities.
  • This approach enhances financial transparency, enabling better resource allocation and strategic decision-making.
  • Accurate assessment of faculty productivity is crucial for understanding and supporting the educational mission of medical schools.
