Abstract:As with any health care process, the efficiency with which outputs are produced in general practice is of considerable importance. Using data from Lincolnshire, this study utilizes data envelopment analysis to examine the relationships between practice costs and outputs, measured not only as the number of patients treated, but also on the basis of performance indicators. The technique permits the construction of an efficiency ranking, facilitating the accurate targeting of monitoring resources.
