    • Nursing Management
    • Surgical Nursing

    Background:

    • To develop and evaluate a novel charging system for enterostomal therapy services.
    • To assess the economic impact and financial justification of ET nurses within a hospital setting.

    Main Methods:

    • Implementation of a corporate-developed charging system for ET nursing services.
    • Financial analysis of revenue generated by the ET nursing department post-implementation.

    Main Results:
