Hospital Productivity: The Role of Efficiency Drivers

A major feature of healthcare systems is substantial variation in hospital productivity. Productivity widely varies across NHS hospitals. This research investigates factors that may explain variations in hospital productivity. We employ a non-parametric panel regression technique to explore the complex structure of the data, and next deal with individual hospital effects to identify some of the determinants of hospital performance. The findings point to the significance of efficiency-enhancing mechanisms that a hospital puts in place. Finally, the research looks into some of the factors that affects efficiency.
