Radiologists make their living interpreting murky X-rays and snowy ultrasound exams. Administrators often make decisions about managing radiology services in a similar way, with only a hazy idea of how to improve financial operations. Decisions about which procedures are profitable and which lose money require data. But that information is often in short supply.
放射科医生靠解读模糊不清的X光片和图像不清晰的超声检查结果为生。管理人员在管理放射科服务时也常常以类似方式做决策,对如何改善财务运营只有模糊的概念。要判断哪些检查项目盈利、哪些亏损,需要数据。但这类信息往往匮乏。
