Diagnosis Related Groups (DRGs) in Germany necessitate new cost accounting methods for radiology. Activity Based Costing (ABC) offers a feasible, process-oriented approach for better financial decisions and departmental control.

Area of Science:

  • Health Economics
  • Radiology Management
  • Healthcare Finance

Background:

  • German Diagnosis Related Groups (g-drg) system impacts hospital reimbursement.
  • Reconsideration of radiological product utilization and associated costs is required.
  • Traditional cost accounting methods may not align with DRG-based reimbursement.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare traditional cost accounting with Activity Based Costing (ABC) for radiology departments.
  • To outline the implementation steps for ABC in a radiology setting.
  • To assess the feasibility of process-oriented cost analysis in radiology.

Main Methods:

  • Comparison of traditional cost accounting with Activity Based Costing (ABC).
  • Development of implementation steps for ABC in radiology.

Related Experiment Videos

  • Analysis of process-oriented cost structures.
  • Main Results:

    • Activity Based Costing (ABC) is a feasible method for radiology departments.
    • ABC facilitates decentralized controlling functions.
    • Process analysis steps are valuable for other institutional purposes.

    Conclusions:

    • Process-oriented cost analysis is viable for radiology.
    • ABC is key for decentralized control in healthcare institutions.
    • Implementing ABC presents a strategic challenge for managers seeking better decision-making data.
