Background: Evaluation of hospital performance plays an important role in improving the quality and quantity of services provided. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of Iran University of Medical Sciences hospitals using the PABON LASSO model in 2022.
Methods: This descriptive and cross-sectional study was conducted in 2022. Thirteen hospitals affiliated to Iran University of Medical Sciences formed the study population. Data were analyzed by SPSS22 software using PABON LASSO model. A one-sample t-test was used for comparison.
Results: Out of 13 hospitals, 38.46% were in the first region, 23.07% were in the third region, and finally 30.76% were in the fourth region of the matrix. Based on the results, in the studied hospitals, the average length of stay (ALS) was 4 days, the bed occupancy rate (BOR) was 72.89%, and the bed turnover rate (BTR) was determined 72.14 times a year.
Conclusion: The BOR index in the studied hospitals had a higher level of desirability compared to the national standard. Using one of the active methods of problem identification in hospitals and by understanding the relationship between performance indicators, it is possible to provide a platform for policy-making and revision of current policies in order to use the maximum performance capacity.
