The study aims to examine the outsourcing decisions for superior organization performance
in Bahir Dar, Felege hiwot referral hospital in focus. The study was employed quantitative
method, with judgmental sampling and survey questionnaires were sent to Felege Hiwot
Referral Hospital in Bahir Dar. The study tests the relationships between outsourcing
decisions and organization performance using multiple regressions based on 119 responses
from Bahir Dar FHRH. there is strong positive relationship was found between independent
and dependent variables, which is 0.677, 0.851, 0.891,and 0.613 with cost driven outsource,
strategic driven outsource, quality driven outsource, and time driven outsource respectively at
a significant value of p is less than 0.001. This implies that the more and well implemented
cost driven outsource, strategic driven outsource, quality driven outsource, and time driven
outsource the higher will be the organizational performance. R square is .878, as 87.8% of
the variation in organizational performance can be explained by the independent variables.
The remaining 12.2 % of the variance is explained by other variables not included in this
study. The Adjusted R Square adjusts for a bias in
as the number of variables increases
which is having a value of 0.874. Beta values of cost driven outsource has a positive
relationship with organization performance with a value of 0.096, β value (0.315) shows that
there is a positive relationship between strategic driven outsource and organization
performance, quality driven outsource has a beta coefficient of 0.518 has positive impact on
organization performance, and the beta value (0.135) is positive significant relationship
between time driven outsource and organization performance. These findings point out that
FHRH has to give major emphasis for quality driven outsourcing, strategy driven
outsourcing, time driven outsourcing and cost driven outsourcing factors affecting
outsourcing decision of the study as they do significantly affect organization performance.
The study provides hospital administrators and public managers with a list of prioritized
factors for making rational informed decision about outsourcing decisions of services in the
hospitals. The study has some limitations; this paper has focused only on FHRH. So, future
researchers should extend the scope of this research at country or regional level for the
whole referral hospitals with similar variable. |
