## Abstract The paper explores the link between managerial performance and cost efficiency of 617 Japanese general local public hospitals in 1999–2007. Treating managerial performance as unobservable heterogeneity, the paper employs a panel data stochastic cost frontier model with latent classes. F
## Abstract This study examined the impact of managed care and other environmental factors on hospital inefficiency in 1631 US hospitals during the period 1990–1996. A panel, stochastic frontier regression model was used to estimate inefficiency parameters and inefficiency scores. The results sugg
