title: Developing and implementing a personnel budget report.
abstract: Few issues are as vital to the health care industry as those surrounding the notion of cost containment and cost control. If hospital executives are to gain a handle by which to institute programs of cost containment, however, they must have access to pertinent and timely information on hospital operations. Because labor costs represent such a large percentage of total hospital costs, a personnel budgeting report can be a useful first step in gaining valuable management information.
