To determine whether the methodology of social return on investment (SROI) could be a way in which the value of a healthcare-related program (children's cancer camp) could be captured, evaluated, and communicated.
The value of healthcare goes beyond what can be captured in financial terms; however, this is the most common type of value that is measured. The SROI methodology accounts for a broader concept of value by measuring social, environmental, and economic outcomes and uses monetary values to represent them.
The steps/stages of an SROI analysis were applied to the context of a children's camp for this article.
Applying the SROI methodology to this healthcare-related program was feasible and provided insight and understanding related to the impacts of this program.
Because of SROI's flexibility, it is a tool that has great potential in a healthcare environment and for leaders to evaluate programmatic return on investment.
确定社会投资回报率（SROI）方法是否可用于衡量、评估和传达与医疗保健相关项目（儿童癌症营地）的价值。
医疗保健的价值超出了金钱所能衡量的范围；然而，这是最常被衡量的价值类型。SROI方法通过衡量社会、环境和经济成果来考虑更广泛的价值概念，并使用货币价值来体现这些成果。
本文将SROI分析的步骤/阶段应用于儿童营地的背景中。
将SROI方法应用于这个与医疗保健相关的项目是可行的，并提供了与该项目影响相关的见解和理解。
由于SROI具有灵活性，它是一种在医疗保健环境中具有巨大潜力的工具，可供领导者评估项目投资回报率。
