Healthcare Productivity Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate healthcare productivity is:

\[ P = \frac{PS}{HW} \]

Where:

P is the productivity (patients per hour).
PS is the number of patients seen per day.
HW is the number of hours worked per day.

What is Healthcare Productivity?

Healthcare productivity measures the efficiency of healthcare providers by calculating the number of patients seen per hour. This metric is crucial for understanding the workload and effectiveness of healthcare staff. It can be used to optimize scheduling, staffing, and resource allocation to improve the efficiency and quality of healthcare delivery.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Number of Patients Seen: 40
Number of Hours Worked: 8

Using the formula:

\[ P = \frac{40}{8} = 5 \text{ patients per hour} \]

This means the productivity is 5 patients per hour.
