In this assessment of the financial characteristics of a large sample of contract-managed hospitals compared with traditionally managed hospitals, emphasis was given to differences between hospitals managed by for-profit and nonprofit organizations and between hospitals before and after they were contract managed. Our findings suggest higher profitability for hospitals managed by nonprofit organizations in light of their poor profitability prior to contract management and better activity ratios for for-profit managed hospitals. These and other findings are discussed in terms of their implications for both hospital administrators and researchers.
在本次对大量合同管理医院与传统管理医院财务特征的评估中，重点关注了营利性和非营利性组织管理的医院之间以及医院在合同管理前后的差异。我们的研究结果表明，鉴于非营利性组织管理的医院在合同管理前盈利能力较差，其盈利能力更高，而营利性管理的医院运营比率更好。这些以及其他研究结果将根据其对医院管理人员和研究人员的影响进行讨论。
