Project description
Despite widespread use little is known about the relationship between activity based financing and hospital performance. The project aims at providing a measure of productivity growth in Norwegian hospitals for the period 2000-2011/12 following the introduction of activity based financing in 1997.
In addition, the project will attempt to establish a possible empirical relationship between the level of activity based financing and i) hospital productivity (growth), ii) service and medical quality, and iii) patient selection and DRG-creep. The project is undertaken in collaboration with NTNU and SINTEF.
