Abstract

  Hospitals, as one of the main providers of health services, are of great importance in health and economy. The aim of this descriptive study was to assess the dedicated revenue of all non-educational hospitals in Guilan University of Medical Sciences (14 hospitals) in 2012. On average, 22.35% of income was provided by cash earnings and 77.65% was provided by insurance organizations . There was 1.25% deficit by insurance. The net income of small hospitals with few available beds was very low and they were not economically affordable. The out of pocket to total income ratio was higher in the hospitals located in deprived areas due to lack of full insurance coverage.       Citation: Asefzadeh S, Moosaniaye Zare SA, Mirtamizdoust M.
