Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Decision Science
  • Organizational Behavior

Background:

  • General decision-making models are insufficient for the unique hospital environment.
  • Hospitals require specialized models due to their complex services.
  • This research addresses the need for a tailored decision-making framework for hospital managers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel decision-making model specifically for hospital managers.
  • To validate the proposed model through expert consensus.
  • To enhance the quality and effectiveness of hospital management decisions.

Main Methods:

  • Modified Delphi technique employed for model development and validation.
  • Scoping review and semi-structured interviews informed the initial model draft.
  • Two rounds of expert consultation with 33 professionals ensured model verification.

Main Results:

  • A 10-construct decision-making model was developed, categorized into inputs, processes, and outputs.
  • Key constructs include decision maker, implementer, organization, client, subject, analysis, evaluation, implementation, and control.
  • The model provides a structured guide for each decision-making stage and necessary conditions for optimal outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • The developed decision-making model simplifies complex choices for hospital managers.
  • A systematic approach using this model leads to improved results for all hospital stakeholders.
  • The model serves as a valuable tool for analyzing and improving hospital management decisions.
