Article Synopsis
- The study assessed the efficiency of 40 outpatient clinics in Matanzas, Cuba, during the first trimester of 2006, aiming to identify the best performers and potential improvements.
- Using data envelopment analysis, the clinics had a high overall efficiency rate of 0.95, but about 27.5% were deemed inefficient, highlighting areas such as tuberculosis detection, preventable infant mortality, and immunization coverage needing attention.
- The findings suggest that sharing best practices from successful clinics could enhance the performance of less efficient ones, while also recommending a review of resource distribution to prevent unnecessary allocation.
