    Nurse executives must understand how nursing workload measurement impacts total patient costs. Different systems significantly affect case costing, influencing financial decisions in healthcare.

    Area of Science:

    • Healthcare Management
    • Nursing Economics
    • Health Services Research

    Background:

    • Nursing costs represent a substantial portion of overall patient care expenses.
    • Accurate cost allocation is crucial for effective financial management in hospitals.
    • Nurse executives require reliable data for strategic decision-making.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the impact of various nursing workload measurement systems on case cost determination.
    • To analyze the relationship between these measurement systems and their implications for nurse executives.
    • To discuss the consequences of different measurement approaches for case costing.

    Main Methods:

    • The study analyzed data from different nursing workload measurement systems.
    • Case costs were developed using these varied measurement approaches.
