Research Methodology This quantitative study was conducted within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and it involved 8 hospitals from the following countries:
Based on an extensive secondary research, the most popular metrics used in the healthcare industry were identified. The calculation methodology for these metrics is available on smartKPIs.com and it was provided to all study participants in order to ensure consistency in data collection. The reference month for the data is May 2015.
Limitations From 100 metrics initially identified as relevant for the healthcare industry, conclusive data was collected only for 75 metrics.
Data was collected through a standardized questionnaire requesting calculated values for each metric in accordance to the reporting frequency identified in each case.
Among the hospitals analyzed the following differences must be acknowledged: 62.5% of hospitals are multispecialized;
Understanding data Data analysis consisted in identifying minimum, maximum and average values for each metric, as well as identifying any possible correlations between the results of various metrics. For a metric to be included in the analysis it should have at least 2 hospitals providing data, which led to the assessment of 75 metrics.
Differences in terms of hospital size, as it can be observed in the # Headcount graphic.
When comparing this study’s data with your own performance results consider the following recommendation: Any deviations from the values presented here to your own performance data is not necessary favorable of unfavorable. This should be considered as merely an indication for additional analysis. The larger the discrepancy, the more need for additional scrutiny as performance results can vary significantly based on geographic area, hospital size and profile.
Among the 75 metrics included in the analysis, 65% were completed by more at least 50% of the respondents.
