Study on Incentive Preference of Medical Staff in Public Hospitals Based on Discrete Choice Experiment
Objective To explore the preference of medical staff in public hospitals for various incentive factors,and to provide theoretical basis for the hospital to formulate a reasonable incentive system and stimulate the enthusiasm of medical staff.Methods Based on the discrete choice experiment,it was conducted from March 2023 to June 2023,through the method of multistage stratified random sampling,the medical staff of a general hospital,a Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital and a maternal and child health hospital in one city in the east,west,south,north and middle of Hainan Province were investigated by questionnaire,and analyzed their incentive preference and willingness to pay by using the mixed logit model.Results All the six attributes have significant influence on medical staff's incentive preference,among which,medical staff prefer to choose the incentive effect brought by the annual salary of 350 000 yuan,good working atmosphere and working intensity of 8 hours,while hospital development has little influence on incentive preference.Among the non-economic factors,when the working atmosphere changes from depression to good,they are willing to get an annual salary of 168 305.4 yuan less,while when the hospital development changes from nothing to good,they are only willing to get an annual salary of 12 433.14 yuan less.Conclusion According to the different incentive needs of medical staff,it is more helpful to formulate accurate incentive schemes and adopt economic and non-economic incentive means to stabilize the hospital talent team and improve work enthusiasm.
