Abstract:
Hospitals that grow and develop in order to be managed efficiently and effectively, need to be done to face stiff competition in the world of health services. If you want to survive in the competition, the hospital needs to recalculate the existing hospital rates, by using a competitive rate model calculation. Based on the results of interviews with the head of the hemodialysis unit (HD) stated that 95% of HD patients who seek treatment at Wangaya Hospital are BPJS patients and the rest are general patients.

The first study is a cross-sectional, multi-group investigation based on secondary data from 65,142 respondents in 172 acute/specialist UK NHS trusts.
