Abstract

In this paper, we use one of the most well-known data envelopment analysis DEA model which is presented by (Banker, Charnes, Cooper) which know as BCC model to measure the relative efficiency and scale efficiency of health organization in Thi Qar province with respect to their inputs and outputs. The case study consists of eight hospitals with four inputs and three outputs for two years period i.e., 2020 and 2021. First, we calculate the relative efficiency based on BCC model and we conclude that six hospitals get full efficiency and the relative efficiency for other hospitals is 0.80, and 0.88. Second, we calculate the scaleefficiency and we see that the minimum scale efficiency is 0.71 in 2020 while in 2021 the minimum scale efficiency is 0.80. We conclude that most of the hospital get high score efficiency during 2020 and they improve their performance during 2021 as well.
