摘要

This study proposes the network data envelopment analysis (NDEA) models for evaluating the human resource efficiencies of Mongolian hospitals. In the proposed NDEA multi- objective programming (NDEA-MOP) model, the efficiency of each division (within a hospital) and the overall efficiency of a hospital are formulated as different objective functions. Using the fuzzy approach, the overall as well as the divisional efficiencies can be computed in a cohesive framework. We conduct the case study of the Mongolian hospitals with the data from the Health Statistics Department of the Government Implementing Agency- Department of Health of Mongolia. The results show that NDEA-MOP obtains satisfactory and discriminating efficiency scores compared with related studies.
