VIKOR method with enhanced accuracy for multiple criteria decision making in healthcare management.

Višekriterijumsko kompromisno rangiranje (VIKOR) method is one of the commonly used multi criteria decision making (MCDM) methods for improving the quality of decision making. VIKOR has an advantage in providing a ranking procedure for positive attributes and negative attributes when it is used and examined in decision support. However, we noticed that this method may failed to support an objective result in medical field because most medical data have normal reference ranges (e.
