CFOs aren't partying like it's the 1990s, but healthcare portfolios did deliver double-digit increases in 2003, a Commonfund Institute survey said. Executives, seeking to avoid losses, have invested in controversial hedge funds, which have become a little too popular, says the institute's executive director, John Griswold, left.

Abstract
Activity-based financing (ABF) was implemented in the Norwegian hospital sector from 1 July 1997. A fraction of the block grant from the state to the county councils has been replaced by a matching grant depending upon the number and composition of hospital treatments. As a result of the reform, the majority of county councils have introduced activity-based contracts with their hospitals. This paper studies the effect of activity-based funding on hospital efficiency. We predict that hospital efficiency will increase because the benefit from cost-reducing efforts in terms of number of treated patients is increased under ABF as compared with global budgets. The prediction is tested using a panel data set from the period 1992-2000. Efficiency indicators are estimated by means of data envelopment analysis (DEA) with multiple inputs and outputs. Using a variety of econometric methods, we find that the introduction of ABF has improved efficiency when measured as technical efficiency according to DEA analysis. The result is less uniform with respect to the effect on cost-efficiency.

Abstract
When the economy was booming and investment returns were strong, many hospitals benefited from "funding holidays" that let them reduce or eliminate annual pension fund payments. But not-for-profit hospitals' pension funds lost more than 6% last year, and a discount-rate drop boosted funding requirements. It's a "double whammy," according to Kim McCarthy, left, of Trinity Health.

Abstract
We conducted a descriptive analysis of data from the Hospital Cost Report Information System from 1985 through 1997 on nonfederal, short-stay hospitals in the United States with 12-month reporting periods and valid data for the primary outcomes. The main outcome measures were change in number of beds, inpatient days, overhead cost per bed, and overhead cost per inpatient day. Actual outcomes were compared to predicted outcomes from: (1) a scenario holding the ratio of overhead cost per volume constant throughout the study period; and (2) a scenario holding overhead expenditures for 1985 constant as volume changed. The sample contained a mean of 3,605 hospitals per year. Volume declined annually by 2.2 beds (95 percent confidence interval [CI], 2.1 to 2.2; P < .001) and 997 inpatient days (95 percent CI, 992 to 1,003; P < .001). Overhead cost per bed increased by 3,388 dollars annually (95 percent CI, 3,049 to 3,737; P < .001) and overhead cost per inpatient day increased by 40 dollars annually (95 percent CI, 36 to 44; P < .001). In the constant ratio scenario, mean overhead cost per bed increased by 42,523 dollars (32 percent), and mean overhead cost per inpatient day increased by 435 dollars (59 percent). In the constant overhead cost scenario, overhead cost per bed increased 15 percent and overhead cost per inpatient day increased 19 percent. Hospital overhead costs are increasing faster than would be expected if efficiency were the primary goal of hospital management.

Abstract
In hospitals and health systems, numerous worthwhile capital projects are competing for limited capital. Hospitals face demands for technology upgrades, facility renovations, and new services. Some projects cannot be delayed, even though they do not bring a direct financial return. Certain services are not themselves profitable but serve as patient gateways to more profitable services.

Abstract
An analysis of hospital, tax-exempt bonds issued before and after the Allegheny Health, Education, and Research Foundation (AHERF) bankruptcy demonstrated that despite the decline in market rates for tax-exempt securities in the post period, bonds issued by hospitals and systems carried higher coupon rates than they did in the pre period. There was a significant decline in the proportion of hospital/system bonds that were insured from the pre to the post period. Bond insurance firms tightened their credit criteria after the bankruptcy, which may explain, in part, why the proportion of insured bonds declined. We conclude that hospital bonds are now viewed as riskier instruments than they were prior to the AHERF bankruptcy. This is reflected in higher coupon rates for both insured and uninsured bonds and fewer insured bond issues. This decline in hospital creditworthiness comes at a time when many hospitals need to replace aging assets and acquire new technologies in response to increased inpatient utilization.
