Abstract

Background: This research aimed to systematically study and outline the methods of HOSPITAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION used in IRAN.Methods: In this SYSTEMATIC REVIEW, all Persian and English-language articles published in the IRANian and non-Iranian scientific journals indexed from Sep 2004 to Sep 2014 were studied. For finding the related articles, the researchers searched the IRANian electronic databases, including SID, IRANMedex, IRANDoc, Magiran, as well as the non-Iranian electronic databases, including Medline, Embase, Scopus, and Google Scholar. For reviewing the selected articles, a data extraction form, developed by the researchers was used.Results: The entire review process led to the selection of 51 articles. The publication of articles on the HOSPITAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION in IRAN has increased considerably in the recent years. Besides, among these 51 articles, 38 articles (74.51%) had been published in Persian language and 13 articles (25.49%) in English language. Eight MODELs were recognized as evaluation MODEL for IRANian HOSPITALs. Totally, in 15 studies, the data envelopment analysis MODEL had been used to evaluate the HOSPITAL performance.Conclusion: Using a combination of MODEL to integrate indicators in the HOSPITAL evaluation process is inevitable. Therefore, the Ministry of Health and Medical Education should use a set of indicators such as the balanced scorecard in the process of HOSPITAL evaluation and accreditation and encourage the HOSPITAL managers to use them.
