Productivity and productivity management are critical to effective case-mix management. Case-mix management expands on traditional productivity management to include the relationship between such intermediate products as patient days, tests and meals, and the ultimate end product, the case. As hospitals search to increase the profitability of specific case types, they must focus on two critical productivity control points. First, they must examine length of stay and ancillary utilization as one level of productivity. Then they must turn to more traditional analyses and review departmental productivity in the production of the intermediate products. No case-mix management system is complete unless it focuses on both of these critical relationships. Part two of this article will explore performance reporting and its role in managing both productivity and case mix.
生产率及生产率管理对于有效的病例组合管理至关重要。病例组合管理在传统生产率管理的基础上进行了扩展，将诸如住院天数、检查和膳食等中间产品与最终产品即病例之间的关系涵盖在内。随着医院寻求提高特定病例类型的盈利能力，它们必须关注两个关键的生产率控制点。首先，它们必须将住院时长和辅助服务利用率作为生产率的一个层面进行审视。然后，它们必须转向更传统的分析方法，审查中间产品生产过程中的部门生产率。除非专注于这两个关键关系，否则没有任何病例组合管理系统是完整的。本文的第二部分将探讨绩效报告及其在管理生产率和病例组合方面的作用。
