Abstract:Objective To evaluate the performance of hospital clinic departments scientifically and accurately.Methods A reasonable indicator system was established, twelve indicators were selected which were scientific, ingenious, practical, independent, and operational. Efficacy coefficient method which was weighted through entropy method was applied to performance evaluation. Results The total efficiency coefficients of all clinic departments in the hospital were sorted high to low as the 3rd Medicine Department, Otolaryngology Department, Dermatology Department, the 2nd Medicine Department, the 3rd Surgery Department, the 1st Medicine Department, the 2nd Surgery Department, the 1st Surgery Department, TCM Department and Ophthalmology Department.Conclusion The efficacy coefficient method, which was weighted through entropy method, was used to evaluate the performance of hospital clinic departments. It makes the evaluation more scientific and accurate, and thereby hospital clinic departments’ actual level can be reflected objectively. The efficacy coefficient method, which is based on the principle of multi-objective programming, shows obvious advantages.
