Strategies to analyze technical efficiency in medical care for patients with a traffic accident involving an uninsured or unidentified vehicle in Colombia, 2018-2022

Means of transportation are a necessity for the economic and social development of a country, but when traffic accidents occur, they generate disability and premature deaths, resulting in reconstructed families that are sometimes dysfunctional due to the grief they are facing, economic losses in the home and the community and expenses to the health and labor system that represent patrimonial detriments; But since it is an acute and unexpected event, one way to remedy it is to have timely, relevant and efficient care that prevents mortality and reduces disability. The objective of this research is to analyze the technical efficiency in the medical care of patients due to traffic accidents involving an uninsured or unidentified vehicle in Colombia during the period 2018-2022 (Salinas-Martínez et al., 2009)(Romano & Choi, 2016) It is an economic evaluation study (Rubio Cebrián y Rubio González, 2012) and it was made through an enveloping analysis of data of the services and technologies provided in the different Health Providing Institutions-IPS (Schuschny, 2007).
