Abstract

Background: Implementation of economical analyses for optimal allocation and effective utilization of hospital resources is of prime importance.Objective: To estimate the production function of hospitals affiliated to Qazvin University of Medical Sciences during 1998-2004.Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted in 4 university hospitals. The data were collected using information forms and further analyzed by SPSS software and regression method. Cobb-Douglas was the method of choice for production function in present study. Findings: The results indicated that the production elasticity of physicians, nurses, active beds and other personnel-associated factors were 0.55, 0.29, 0.81 and 0.73, respectively. Also, the marginal product rate of physicians, nurses, active beds and other personnel-associated factors were 114, 38.6, 54 and 37 patient admissions, respectively. The production function coefficient in target hospitals was 1.28 with an obvious economy of scale shown in our study.Conclusion: All production factors were in the economic region of production. Hence, increasing production factors except for physicians to boost total product and also decreasing product cost is recommended.
