Download or read book The Changing Hospital Industry written by David M. Cutler and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the hospital industry has been undergoing massive change and reorganization with technological innovations and the spread of managed care. As a result, the total number of hospitals countrywide has been declining, and a growing number of not-for-profit hospitals have converted to for-profit status. These changes raise two fundamental questions: What determines a hospital's choice of for-profit or not-for-profit organizational form? And how does that form affect patients and society? This timely volume provides a factual basis for discussing for-profit versus not-for-profit ownership of hospitals and gives a first look at the evidence about new and important issues in the hospital industry. The Changing Hospital Industry: Comparing Not-for-Profit and For-Profit Institutions will have significant implications for public-policy reforms in this vital industry and will be of great interest to scholars in the fields of health economics, public finance, hospital organization, and management; and to health services researchers.
Download or read book Governance of the American Economy written by John L. Campbell and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1991-05-31 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, nine scholars representing various perspectives examine institutions that govern economic activity in the United States and the dramatic changes they have undergone since the late nineteenth century. They investigate how and why these changes occurred and continue to occur as markets become more volatile, technology changes and international competition becomes more intense. They also address general questions about the governance of capitalist economies by considering several governance mechanisms such as markets, bureaucratic hierarchies, associations and informal networks and by exploring how such mechanisms emerge to coordinate economic activity and affect economic performance. The first part of the book describes the important characteristics of these organisational forms and provides an overview of institutional development in the US economy. The second part includes case studies of the institutional development of eight economic sectors. Finally, based on data from these case studies, the third part of the book tests competing theories of institutional change in capitalism, develops a new evolutionary model of the change process, and offers an original analysis of how the state influences this process.

Download or read book Are Contract managed Hospitals More Efficient written by Avi Dor and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contract management is an arrangement in which the board of trustees of a hospital retains an outside organization to manage the facility. This report examines differences between contract-managed hospitals and hospitals managed by salaried administrators.The report uses data from the Hospital Cost and Utilization Project, 1980-87 (HCUP-2) database and the American Hospital Association Annual Survey of Hospitals for 1987 to compare contract-managed hospitals with noncontract hospitals. Contract-managed hospitals generally are smaller facilities, often located in rural areas. Adjusted for size and location, contract-managed hospitals resemble noncontract in casemix and physician speciality attributes, although they appear to provide fewer technology-intensive services. Data from HCUP-2 were used to determine the relationship between financial performance and duration of contract management. Financial ratio analysis suggests that boards of trustees of hospitals opt for services of contract-management firms when the hospitals face financial difficulties. Financially stable hospitals are less likely to do so. Given enough time, contract managers appear to be able to improve the financial condition of the hospital they manage
