ABSTRACT Purpose: To analyze teleconsultation at a public ophthalmic teaching hospital during the COVID-19 pandemic in Brazil. Methods: Medical records of patients who requested ophthalmological teleconsultation between June 2020 and March 2021 were reviewed. The main outcomes included demographic data, eye disease symptoms, hypothesized diagnosis, and management. Moreover, the results of a satisfaction survey administered after the consultation were analyzed. Results: Medical records of a total of 161 patients were reviewed. The mean age was 45.98 ± 17.57 (8-90) years, and most were women (113, 70.20%). Only 57 (35.60%) of the patients had made previous follow-up visits to the hospital. The most frequent reason for consultation was the need for a new eyeglass prescription (73, 45.34%), followed by dry eye symptoms (16, 9.93%) and pterygium (13, 8.07%). Other reasons were the monitoring of previously diagnosed eye diseases, such as glaucoma, retinopathies, strabismus, and keratoconus. Regarding the satisfaction survey, 151 (93.78%) patients answered the online questionnaire. Most reported that they were satisfied with the teleconsultation (94.03%) and would participate in a future teleconsultation (90.06%). Conclusion: Teleconsultation could be widely used to assist patients in public ophthalmology healthcare and teaching hospitals. Even though new eyeglass prescriptions are a frequent reason for ophthalmological appointments, patients tend to be satisfied with teleconsultation, as it also provides guidance.

Performance evaluation of administrative personnel is challenging for performance reform of public hospitals. Constructing a reasonable performance evaluation plan for such personnel is conducive to promoting the high-quality and efficient development of hospitals. Hospital H has been exploring the implementation of performance evaluation reform for administrative personnel since 2019. Firstly, it clarified the responsibilities of various administrative management positions throughout the hospital and adopted the Hay position evaluation method for job value evaluation. Secondly, based on this, a performance evaluation index system covering common indexes, personality indexes, and implicit ability indexes was constructed, and the calculation and distribution methods of performance bonuses were clarified. The development of common indexes was based on the hospital′s " 14th Five Year Plan" , while individual indexes were used as key performance evaluation points of each department formulated according to the hospital′s annual key work breakdowns and the " 14th Five Year Plan" . The implicit ability index was constructed based on the competency model to guide and promote the personal development of employees. Finally, the hospital established a feedback and monitoring mechanism to ensure the steady operation of the performance evaluation plan. Thanks to the performance reform of administrative personnel based on job value evaluation, Hospital H has eliminated the phenomenon of " egalitarianism" in the distribution of administrative personnel performance, played a guiding and motivating role in performance evaluation for employees, and achieved better implementation of the hospital′s strategic goals. This can provide reference for the performance reform of administrative personnel in other medical institutions.

Objective:To construct an evaluation index system for comprehensive budget management at public hospitals and conduct empirical research for reference in evaluation of comprehensive budget management at public hospitals.Methods:From May to June 2022, based on the Implementation Measures for the Comprehensive Budget Management System of Public Hospitals and its interpretations, literature analysis, and expert interviews, a preliminary evaluation index system was developed for comprehensive budget management of public hospitals. Then the Delphi method was applied for two rounds of expert consultation, with experts invited to evaluate the importance of indexes, while the analytic hierarchy process was used to calculate the weight values of indexes. Based on such a comprehensive budget management evaluation index system, a questionnaire was developed, and tertiary public hospitals were selected based on the principle of convenient sampling. Then a questionnaire survey was conducted from June to October 2022. The questionnaire was filled out by hospital level leaders(chief accountants), finance/audit leaders, and directors of finance/audit/operation management departments from the sample hospitals with professional knowledge and rich operational management experience in budget management. The comprehensive budget management level of the sample hospital was thus evaluated based on the survey results. Results:The comprehensive budget management evaluation index system for public hospitals was composed of 2 first-level indexes, 4 second-level indexes, and 20 third-level ones. The weights for the 2 first-level indexes of target building and management orientation were both 0.500, while the weights for the 4 second-level indexes, namely strategic implementation, comprehensive coverage, performance evaluation, and adaptation matching were all 0.250. Among the third-level indexes, the weights of budget execution, system improvement, system establishment, organizational construction, and revenue and expenditure business ranked top five, with weights of 0.070, 0.069, 0.066, 0.066, and 0.064, respectively. A total of 95 hospitals were selected for questionnaire survey, and the evaluation found 46 of them with a comprehensive budget management level of " excellent" and " good" , 27 with a " moderate" level, and 22 with a " poor" and " very poor" level. Scores of the third-level indexes were between 39-94 points, while the score of 6 third-level indexes were below 60 points, namely interconnection, budget analysis, compatibility and adaptation, system improvement, participation level, and assessment application.Conclusions:The evaluation index system for comprehensive budget management at public hospitals in this study proves rational and practical, serving as a reference for the evaluation of comprehensive budget management at public hospitals and related researches.

Objective:To construct an evaluation index system for the reform of public hospital salary system and conduct empirical research, for reference in deepening the reform of public hospital salary system.Methods:Based on the building blocks of health systems and the Guiding Opinions on Pilot Work of Public Hospital Salary System Reform (Human Resources and Social Security Ministry 〔2017〕 No. 10), a preliminary index system was constructed. And the expert consultation method was used to determine the evaluation index system for public hospital salary system reform. The authors selected representative hospitals in Chaoyang district of Beijing with reform experiences of such salary system, and applied this index system for empirical research. Objective indexes were extracted from the hospital information system, which were used to evaluate relevant data before the reform (from 2016 to 2017) and after the reform (from 2018 to 2019); a questionnaire was customized based on the subjective indexes in the index system, which was used for a questionnaire survey on hospital staff, outpatient patients, and inpatients. A descriptive analysis was made on such indexes as hospital revenue and expenditure, medical expenses, salary levels, and satisfaction. The comparison of relevant data before and after the reform was conducted using one-way ANOVA. Results:This study constructed a public hospital salary system reform evaluation system, comprising 4 first-level indexes, 8 second-level indexes, and 38 third-level indexes. second-level indexes were salary level and structure, salary governance and information construction, health manpower and service provision, medical products and technology. There were 28 objective indexes and 10 subjective ones. The evaluation results of 4 representative public hospitals showed that the proportion of labor costs, hygiene materials income, treatment income, nursing income, and physician service fees to the total income increased as compared to that before the reform, with statistical significance ( P<0.05); The average medical expenses of discharged patients and the proportion of drug income (excluding traditional Chinese medicine slices) to total income decreased compared to that before the reform, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05); The difference between the average medical expenses per outpatient visit and the proportion of surgical income to total income was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in salary levels among employees of different genders, seniority, and educational backgrounds ( P>0.05). On the other hand, there was a statistically significant difference in salary levels among employees of different ages, majors, professional and technical titles, and employment types ( P<0.05). The actual salary of 636 employee was only 56.26% of the expected salary, and their total score of salary satisfaction was (3.33 ± 0.86) points. The scores of public service motivation, medical service quality, and job satisfaction were (3.52 ± 0.78) points, (3.91 ± 0.77) points, and (3.72 ± 0.65) points, respectively. The satisfaction scores of outpatient and inpatient patients were (4.64 ± 0.23) and (4.82 ± 0.45), respectively. Conclusions:The evaluation system for the reform of the salary system in public hospitals constructed in this study can comprehensively evaluate the effectiveness of hospital reform from a multidimensional perspective, combining quantitative and qualitative, subjective and objective aspects. It proves scientific and practical.

Objective:To analyze the cost of diagnosis-intervention packet(DIP) in a certain hospital in 2021 based on hospital intelligent agents, so as to provide feasible ideas for refined management of DIP costs.Methods:On the basis of the construction of the hospital intelligent agent platform and the results of project cost accounting in the early stage, a total of 60 187 cases and 4 860 DIP diseases in the hospital in 2021 were selected as the research objects. The project superposition method was applied to calculate the unit cost of all DIP diseases in the hospital. Based on the results of DIP cost accounting, the ideas and methods of fine management of DIP costs were explored from the perspectives of DIP disease classification, management of all hospital diseases and medical insurance diseases, vertical and horizontal comparative analysis of DIP costs, and management of medical insurance cases and non medical insurance cases under the same DIP disease category.Results:Twenty-two advantageous DIP disease types, 67 key disease types, 1 590 potential disease types, and 3 181 disadvantageous disease types were identified. Introducing medical income as an intermediate indicator facilitated the classification of DIP disease types under medical insurance, 1 072 advantageous disease types, 917 key disease types, 458 potential disease types, and 815 disadvantageous disease types in medical insurance were identified. Through refined accounting, it was found that the average cost of non medical insurance cases under the same DIP disease category was generally higher than that of medical insurance cases, and there were differences in DIP costs at different levels during different time periods.Conclusions:By determining and analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of disease types in the entire hospital, common problems of disease types under the same category can be identified, and targeted control measures can be proposed. By analyzing the two dimensions of medical insurance surplus and medical surplus, the advantages and disadvantages of medical insurance diseases can be quickly determined, providing a lever for the control of medical insurance diseases. The horizontal and vertical comparative analysis of DIP costs, as well as the analysis of medical insurance cases and non medical insurance cases under the same DIP disease category, can provide feasible methods for hospitals to manage DIP costs at multiple levels and dimensions.

Objective:To investigate the trademark registration situation of grade-A tertiary hospitals in China, so as to analyze the current situation of hospital brand protection and explore suggestions for hospital brand protection.Methods:The top 50 hospitals ranked in the 2021 National Hospital Comprehensive Ranking by the Hospital Management Research Institute of Fudan University, excluding military hospitals, were selected as the sample hospitals. The trademark registration information of the 50 sample hospitals was queried through the China Trademark Website of the Trademark Office of China National Intellectual Property Administration on March 15, 2023, and the registration of the full name, abbreviation, hospital emblem and other trademarks of the hospitals was counted. Results:Among the 50 sample hospitals, 26 hospitals already held hospital brand trademarks, which meant that at least one of the hospital′s full name, abbreviation, and emblem was registered as a trademark, accounting for 52%; 7 hospitals did not hold any trademarks, accounting for 14%; 17 hospitals held other trademarks but did not hold hospital brand trademarks, accounting for 34%. Among the 26 hospitals that already held brand trademarks, 11 hospitals only registered in one category. There were 3 hospitals with expired registered trademarks.Conclusions:Nearly half of the sample hospitals did not hold hospital brand trademarks, indicating that the trademark registration and brand protection of tertiary hospitals in China need to be strengthened. It is suggested to establish a hospital brand protection system, clarify the trademark management department, standardize the responsibilities of trademark management, and improve the use of trademarks, so as to do a good job in hospital trademark registration and brand protection.
