The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of Iran University of Medical Sciences hospitals using the PABON LASSO model in 2022.</span></span><span dir="RTL" lang="FA" style="font-size:10.0pt"><span style="line-height:115%"></span></span></span></span></span><br>

Thirteen hospitals affiliated to Iran University of Medical Sciences formed the study population. Data were analyzed by SPSS<sub>22</sub> software using PABON LASSO model. A one-sample t-test was used for comparison.</span></span><span dir="RTL" lang="FA" style="font-size:10.0pt"><span style="line-height:115%"></span></span></span></span></span><br>
<span style="font-size:11pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span calibri="" style="font-family:"><b><span style="font-size:10.0pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="letter-spacing:-.1pt">Results:</span></span></span></b> <span style="font-size:10.0pt"><span style="line-height:115%"><span style="letter-spacing:-.1pt">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.</span></span></span></span></span></span><br>

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.</span></span></span></span></span><br>
