Determination of radiology staffing needs by regression analysis.
In the past, analysis of staffing needs has caused friction between radiology departments and hospital administration. To overcome this difficulty, the department of radiology at the University of New Mexico developed a regression-based analysis which ties departmental staffing needs to hospital statistics. Patient days and number of facility outpatient visits are used to project procedure statistics and staffing needs.
