A computerized system for staffing, billing and productivity measurement

Abstract
Nursing administrators are developing methods to identify nursing department costs and revenue. A patient classification system driven by computerized nurses notes was developed at LDS Hospital as part of the hospital information system. This system is used to determine appropriate staffing on all nursing units and to bill patients directly for nursing care. The data is also used to measure nursing department productivity.
