1Faculty of Health Science, Department of Health care Management, Yüksek İhtisas University, Ankara, Turkey.
Abstract:
Tertiary care hospitals use more resources compared to other hospitals, which makes technical efficiency measurements specific to these hospitals important. This study explored the factors affecting the efficiencies of training and research hospitals affiliated to the Ministry of Health (n = 41) and university hospitals (n = 51) in Turkey via Data Envelopment Analysis, Malmquist Total Factor Productivity Index and panel Tobit Regression. The results showed that hospital size and the status of being a training and research or a university hospital affected the technical efficiency (p < 0.05). The size and the status of the hospitals should be taken into consideration while allocating the resources.
