Comparative StudyTime-driven Activity-based Costing More Accurately Reflects Costs in Arthroplasty Surgery.
Cost estimates derived from traditional hospital cost accounting systems have inherent limitations that restrict their usefulness for measuring process and quality improvement. Newer approaches such as time-driven activity-based costing (TDABC) may offer more precise estimates of true cost, but to our knowledge, the differences between this TDABC and more traditional approaches have not been explored systematically in arthroplasty surgery. ⋯ Level III, therapeutic study.
