The subject of the investigation was Public Hospital “A”(with approximately 300 beds) from April, 2010, until February, 2011. Data was collected and analyzed concerning how the hospital management indicator affects the determination of patient condition severity and nursing requirements. It became clear that as the number of patients with high severity and high nursing requirements increased, the number of operations performed also increased. And it became evident that as the number of patients with high severity and high nursing requirements increased, so did the number of patients being discharged. In order to keep the nursing requirements per patient condition severity constant and to appropriately claim medical treatment fees, it will be necessary to improve the referral system.
