ABSTRACT

The five core indicators(the case mix index, the proportion of level-4 surgery, the proportion of technical service income in medical income, the proportion of personnel expenditure in business expenditure, and the proportion of fixed part in personnel salary) and target values determined by the pilot goal of high-quality development of high-level public hospitals jointly built by National Health Commission and Provincial Government had become the core indicators for evaluating the quality and efficiency of public hospital development. The authors proposed the optimization and improvement measures for the five core indicators one by one from the internal reform and innovation in hospitals, as well as the synergetic development and governance of " insurance-medical-medicine linkage", combined with the current situation of a pilot hospital. The authors also proposed the starting points and driving force for promoting the high-quality development of public hospitals through the synergetic development and governance of " insurance-medical-medicine linkage", including implementing government investment responsibilities, streamlining the price evaluation of medical services, deepening the reform of medical insurance payment, accelerating the expansion of drug and consumable procurement, and promoting the application of advanced technologies and products, in order to provide reference for the in-depth promotion of high-quality development of public hospitals.
