公立醫院每年龐大之公務預算補助負擔幾已無力負荷,產業競爭態勢的轉變,醫院自給自足之呼聲與策略已然形成。目前除台大、榮總由於病患較多,開源不是問題,只需努力節流,即可與大型財團法人醫院競爭外,其餘公立醫療機構不論人力、資力多已捉襟見肘,除面對經營危機與威脅外,亦遭受內外環境多重之衝擊,因此若無法大幅精簡人事,財務錙銖必較靈活運用,將難以營運;所以,公立醫院也應逐漸提升生產力、服務品質、注重成本控制與效率及醫療品質的提升。 本研究主要使我們更清楚的釐清現代公立醫療的時代背景,衡量自償性資金、自給自足與醫療品質等因素,更周全檢討各公立醫院近年來潛在改善方向,作為未來公立醫院改革方針參考。 本研究探討我國公立醫院財務報導與會計處理應改善之處;若採行一般公認會計原則之可行性又如何?擬探討之問題如下: 一、確認財務報導範圍那些單位應包括在同一個體中? 二、公立醫院財務報導應使用那種方式衡量餘絀? 三、如何依一般公認會計原則使公立醫院財務報導更具有用性? 四、資本支出與長期負債與美國政府會計適用之差異? 最後作成結論與建議,以供相關單位及後續研究者參考。
