title: [Analysis of economic management as an aid for directing and planning health care facilities].
abstract: Analyses of hospital processes are of vital importance to management decisions in health facilities. The number of indicators to provide a meaningful analytical basis for decision making should be kept as small as possible. An increased use of modern electronic data processing systems will result in a qualitative improvement of facility-related information systems for managing and planning purposes. The example of an internal department of a district hospital shows that a small number of basic indicators is sufficient for facilitating efficiency and capacity analyses in in-patient units.
