A necessity was proven to use the integral indices in assessing the medical efficiency. The economic and medical efficiencies were found to coincide in 62.5% of cases, which is indicative of that it is not always the case, when the amount of the spent means directly influence the activity output. The study results showed that the technology of integral assessments of the medical-and-economic activity efficiency enables the hospital's manager to define the best and worst functioning units and to make subsequently the appropriate correcting managerial decisions.
