On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
We develop an ex post evaluation of the performance of hospitals moving from a functional to a patient-centered (PC) organizational model. We suggest a quantitative framework for overcoming some of the challenges in the evaluation of organizational models by taking advantage of the fortunate coincidence of a quasi-experimental setting regarding all the major diagnostic categories (MDCs) in three hospitals of an important region of Italy and of the availability of a unique administrative data set spanning nine years. The results show that both efficiency and effectiveness have significantly increased in the average MDC of PC hospitals. These results have important policy implications, which may also be of great interest to policy makers and hospital managers.
