摘要：

Data Envelopment Analysis was used to examine the technical efficiency for sample of the 85 profit and not-for-profit psychiatric hospitals. Results suggests reduction of excessive resource use by all inefficient facilities would result, on average, in a $7.2 million dollar savings in operational expenses, a total of 1715 FTEs in labor reductions, and a reduction of 1129 beds.
