Building Cost of Health Service Prices at Public Hospitals in Hanoi in the Condition of Implementing Autonomy
Author(s): Vu Thi Huyen, Dinh Thi Thuy
Abstract:
As the country moves toward a market economy, the health sector is viewed as an industry within the national economic framework and is a part of the service industry group that meets social welfare requirements. The new viewpoint holds that while a hospital is a service economic unit, its primary objective is not profit maximization. Hospitals receive funding from their service-related activities, which they utilize to pay for operating expenses and capital improvements. The cost of medical services is a major factor when it comes to public hospitals' need for autonomy. This article examines how medical care costs are now set in Hanoi's public hospitals. Based on the findings of the research, the author suggests the best course of action for figuring out fair costs for medical services.
