摘要: Abstract The Austrian health policy aims to maintain and even expand high-quality care. implementation of an integrated master plan, which contains input output target values for the overall care system, is important regulatory intervention. To support authorities, efficiency studies that simultaneously reveal improvement potential can be promising. serve this purpose, we computed bootstrapped non-oriented super-efficiency measures identify any in inputs outputs hospital inpatient sector four years. Variations were investigated using non-parametric post-efficiency analyses.
