Performance evaluation, part 2: developing performance standards.

Abstract

In the first of three articles (MPM2005; Vol. 20#5: 229-232), the author reviewed the broad concept of performance evaluation, defined the term validity in the evaluation process as a standard derived from court decisions, and detailed objective criteria that managers should follow in rating employees. This second article stresses the development of standards, cites examples applicable to daily practice, and details errors that are commonly made in rating personnel.

Consolidations and closures: an empirical analysis of exits from the hospital industry.

This paper investigates the pre-exit characteristics of hospital mergers, acquisitions, and closures. We estimate competing risk hazard models using an 18-year national data set that spans the wave of closures in the 1980s and of mergers in the 1990s. Evidence shows that weak productivity of the hospital is a strong determinant for closures while competitive pressures are more influential in the decision to consolidate. Thus, increased market power, relative to cost reductions, appears to play a larger role in the merger decision. Our results also provide insight into possible correlations between mergers and closures.
