Content: Hospitals play a very important role in the delivery of health care services. With advances in the field of medicines, hospitals are able to offer a wide variety of health services, and in doing so hospitals depend on modern technology, consume large amount of resources, and have thus become very complex organizations. Hospital management has assumed added significant in light of increased cost for medical care, aging populations, and the potentially declining levels of service, of all which threaten the quality of service delivered. Liberalization of insurance sector has added a new dimension to the delivery and pricing of health care services. Poor quality of service not only wastes resources but is also dangerous to the health and welfare of the patients and the community at large. Hospital administrators, therefore, need a certain amount of professional management inputs so as to manage the hospitals efficiently and effectively.
