CASE: KING EDWARD HOSPITAL

1. How well is the hospital currently utilizing its beds?

Capacity Utilization Rate = Actual beds utilized/Available beds

Kapasitas Tingkat Pemanfaatan = Pemanfaatan actual tempat tidur / Tersedia tempat tidur

  • 30 patients x 3 days x 5 days per week = 450 beds utilized per week
  • 30 pasien x 3 hari x 5 hari kerja per minggu = 450 Beds per minggu (beds utilized)
  • 90 beds x 7 days per week = 630 beds available per week
  • 90 beds x 7 hari per minngu = 630 beds per minngu (beds available)
  • Capacity Utilization Rate Per Week = 450/630 = 0.7143 or 71.43%

2. Develop a table to show the effects of adding operations on Saturday.  Assume that 30 operations would still be performed each day.  How would this affect the utilization of the bed capacity?  Is this capacity sufficient for the additional patients?

Capacity Utilization Rate = Actual beds utilized/Available beds

Kapasitas Tingkat Pemanfaatan = Pemanfaatan actual tempat tidur / Tersedia tempat tidur

  • 30 patients x 3 days x 6 days per week = 540 beds utilized per week
  • 30 pasien x 3 hari x 6 hari kerja per minggu = 540 Beds per minggu (beds utilized)
  • 90 beds x 7 days per week = 630 beds available per week
  • 90 beds x 7 hari per minngu = 630 beds per minngu (beds available)
  • Capacity Utilization Rate Per Week = 540/630 = 0.8571 or 85.71%

Kapasitas rata-rata Tingkat utilisasi dalam seminggu akan meningkat dari 71,43% menjadi 85,71% jika menambahkan 30 operasi setiap hari Sabtu.

Apakah kapasitas yang cukup memadai???

Kapasitas ini cukup memadai untuk pasien tambahan mengingat bahwa tingkat pemanfaatan kapasitas diproyeksikan adalah 85,71% yang kurang dari pemanfaatan kapasitas ideal 100%.

3. Now look at the effect of increasing the number of beds by 50%. a) How many operations could the hospital perform per day before running out of bed capacity? (Assume operations are performed 5 days per week with the same number performed on each day.) b) How well would the new resources be utilized relative to the current operation? c) Could the hospital really perform this many operations? Why?

a.  90 + (90 x 0.50) = 135 tempat tidur (kapasitas)

30 + (30 x 0.50) = 45 operasi per hari sebelum kehabisan kapasitas tempat tidur

b.  Kapasitas Tingkat Pemanfaatan = tidur Realisasi dimanfaatkan / Tersedia tempat tidur

30 pasien x 3 hari x 5 hari per minggu = 450 tempat tidur dimanfaatkan per minggu

135 tempat tidur x 7 hari per minggu = 945 tempat tidur yang tersedia per minggu

Kapasitas Tingkat Pemanfaatan Per Minggu = 450/945 = 0,4762 atau 47,62%

Sehubungan dengan operasi saat ini, sumber daya tidak dimanfaatkan dengan baik.

Temuan ini mencerminkan bahwa sumber daya baru tidak dimanfaatkan dengan baik kecuali manajemen puncak memutuskan untuk meningkatkan operasi untuk 45 operasi per hari, yang akan membawa tingkat pemanfaatan tempat tidur kembali ke 71,43%.

c. 12 ahli bedah penuh waktu, masing-masing mampu beroperasi pada 4 pasien per hari

12 x 4 = 48 operasi per hari

Kapasitas proyek: 45 operasi per hari

Kapasitas yang ideal: 48 Kapasitas per hari

Rumah sakit masih bisa melakukan banyak operasi ini.

Jika peningkatan kapasitas tempat tidur dengan 50%, rumah sakit bisa tampil di 45 operasi per hari yang kurang dari total kapasitas ideal dari ahli bedah di 48 operasi per hari. Oleh karena itu, dapat menduga bahwa rumah sakit masih bisa melakukan banyak operasi ini.

4. Although financial data are sketchy, an estimate from a construction company indicates that adding capacity would cost about HK$ 1,000,000 per bed.  In addition, the rate charged for the hernia surgery varies between about HK$9,000 and HK$20,000, with an average rate of HK$13,000 per operation.  The surgeons are paid a flat rate of HK$ 6,000 per operation.  Due to all the uncertainties in government, health care legislation, King Edward would like to justify any expansion within a 5-year time period.
