The efficiency and productivity-changing trend of PHCIs since the 2009 health reform in China based on a three-stage DEA and Malmquist Productivity Index
The efficiency of PHCIs in Hainan has declined slightly since the health reform. Low level of scale efficiency posed a significant impact on the overall efficiency of the medical services in PHCIs. Among potential inefficient technological performances, future policy formulation might focus more on the imbalanced allocation of resources in less-developed regions and PHCIs' lack of attractiveness to local patients.
