The impact of DRG-based management of healthcare facilities on amenable mortality in the European Union

The quality of healthcare management can have a significant impact on the results achieved. Results hospital treatment are directly related to patient’s health and life, thus, it is necessary examine different managerial approaches, including ones financing, indicators provision. This article aims determine whether there dependency between DRG-based (diagnosis-related groups) facilities amenable mortality in EU countries. Health expenditure per capita was measured current international $, number doctors, nurses, beds 1,000 inhabitants were determined as input factors, while outcome factor. order efficiency input-output ratio individual countries defined using DEA analysis. Subsequently, with own financing method ranked versus by mean value groups Mann-Whitney U-test, no statistically dependence found them (p-value 0.522-0.976 for 2012–2017). Thus, even though has various expected benefits, such better transparency this approach does not significantly mortality.
