EFEKTIVITAS DAN EFISIENSI PENGGUNAAN CLINICAL PATHWAY TERHADAP AVERAGE LENGTH OF STAY (AVLOS) PASIEN SECTIO CAESAREA (SC) DI RSI NU DEMAK

Clinical Pathway (CP) was implemented at the RSI NU Demak Hospital as quality and cost control in health services. One of the quality of services can be seen from the Average Length of Stay (AvLOS), so the implementation of CP is very important to measure its effectiveness and efficiency in reducing AvLOS as well as its efficiency in financing. This study aims to determine the effectiveness and efficiency of using CP for AvLOS as well as its efficiency in financing SC patients at the RSI NU Demak Hospital for the period October 2022-May 2023.
