Technical Efficiency of Teaching Hospitals in Iran: The Use of Stochastic Frontier Analysis, 1999–2011
Background Hospitals are highly resource-dependent settings, which spend a large proportion of healthcare financial resources. The analysis of hospital efficiency can provide insight into how scarce resources are used to create health values. This study examines the Technical Efficiency (TE) of 12 teaching hospitals affiliated with Tehran University of Medical Sciences (TUMS) between 1999 and 2...
متن کاملBenchmarking the Efficiency of Philippines Electric Cooperatives Using Stochastic Frontier Analysis and Data Envelopment Analysis
This paper attempts to determine alternative methods of benchmarking the efficiency of electric companies to aid the regulator in crafting policies in enticing them to pursue more efficient production. This paper utilizes the data of electric cooperatives (ECs) in the Philippines, the one in charge of missionary electrification yet the smallest and most heavily indebted part of distribution sec...
متن کاملEfficiency Measurement of US Ports Using Data Envelopment Analysis
Container transportation plays a key role in the process largely because of the numerous technical and economic advantages it provides over traditional methods of water transportation. Compared with traditional port operations, containerization has greatly improved performance of port production. Many container ports no longer enjoy the freedom yielded by a monopoly over the handling of cargo f...
متن کاملAlternative methods to examine hospital efficiency: data envelopment analysis and stochastic frontier analysis.
There has been increasing interest in the ability of different methods to rank efficient hospitals over their inefficient counterparts. The UK Department of Health has used three cost indices to benchmark NHS hospitals (Trusts). This study uses the same dataset and compares the efficiency rankings from the cost indices with those obtained using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Stochastic Fro...
