How efficient are private health centers? : An efficiency study of privately run health centers in Stockholm (English)
Abstract [sv]

Syfte: Uppsatsens syfte är att kartlägga hur effektiva privata vårdcentraler är, som har avtal med Stockholms läns landsting. Effektiviteten, som i denna studie definieras som vinst, har mätts förhållande till antal patienter, antal läkare och antal läkarbesök.

Metod: Undersökningen har en deduktiv utgångspunkt och en kvantitativ undersökning har genomförts där empiri har samlats in med hjälp av enkäter samt med en kompletterande telefonintervju. Resultaten jämförs med motsvarande nyckeltal för friskolor.

Teoretiska perspektiv: De teorier som presenteras i denna uppsats är privatisering, PPP, effektivitet och konkurrens.

Empiri: Det empiriska avsnittet består dels av sekundärdata; SLL’s ersättningssystem, information från tre vårdbolags och en friskolas årsredovisningar, dels av primärdata; enkätsvaren och resultatet från intervjun.

Slutsats: Författaren kommer fram till att privata vårdcentraler är effektivare än friskolor gällande vinst i förhållande till läkare/lärare, men att de är mindre effektiva än friskolor gällande vinst i förhållande till patient/elev.

Abstract [en]

Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to survey how efficient privately run health centers are, which have an agreement with Stockholm’s county council. The efficiency, which in this thesis is defined as revenues, has been measured in relation to number of patients, number of physicians and number of physician appointments.

Methodology: The survey has a deductive approach and a quantitative survey has been implemented where empirical information has been collected with questionnaires, and through a supplementary phone interview. The results have been compared to corresponding ratios for privately run schools.

Theoretical perspectives: The theories that are presented in this thesis are privatization, PPP, efficiency and competition.

Empirical foundation: The empirical part consists of SLL’s compensation system, information from annual reports of care giving companies and a private school, the result from the questionnaires and the interview.

Conclusion: The author reaches the conclusion that private health centers are more efficient than private schools concerning revenues in relation to physicians/teachers, but that they are less efficient than private schools concerning revenues in relation to patient/student.
