MEU is a simple way of Measuring Efficient Utilization of hospital services. It looks at the part of the patient's hospital stay that depends on the tests and treatment required. Are these tests ordered in a way that does not waste time? Is the turnaround time from test ordering to reported results fast or slow? MEU produces a numerical index of efficient utilization; here are some of the ways it has been put to use.
医疗效率指数（MEU）是衡量医院服务有效利用率的一种简单方法。它关注患者住院期间依赖所需检查和治疗的部分。这些检查的安排方式是否不浪费时间？从开单检查到报告结果的周转时间是快还是慢？MEU会生成一个有效利用率的数值指标；以下是它的一些应用方式。
