Measuring Efficiency and Effectiveness in Public Health Management: Methodologies and Applications

Abstract

Efficient and successful measures are important for judging how well public health management systems work. To find out how efficient and effective public health management is, this study work looks at different methods and uses. Starting with a definition of efficiency and effectiveness in public health, highlighting how important they are for making the best use of resources and getting desired health results. For example, data envelopment analysis (DEA), stochastic frontier analysis (SFA), cost-effectiveness analysis (CEA), quality-adjusted life years (QALYs), and other related methods are used to measure these measurements. Furthermore, the essay talks about the problems and limits of figuring out how efficient and effective public health management is, including the lack of data, its poor quality, and the complexity of healthcare systems. Lastly, it shows how these methods have been used in the real world to review and improve public health management practices. This shows how important they are for helping make policy decisions and developing strategies for allocating resources.
