Abstract BackgroundThe Joint Commission on International Accreditation of Health Care Organizations (JCI) standard is a hospital accreditation standard recognized by the medical industry worldwide. However, the previous Chinese hospital management model cannot be fully integrated with the JCI standard. The purpose of this study is to explore a new Chinese hospital management mode that adapts to JCI standard.MethodsThis article retrospectively analyzed the initial results of the operation of the double QSSE management mode at Xuzhou Renci Hospital, a Chinese private hospital from 2016 to 2018. The innovation mode combines the four elements of patients' needs "Quaesitum, Solicitude, Surroundings, and Expenditure" with the four core contents of hospital management "Quality, Service, Staff and Economic operation".ResultsAfter two years implementation of the model, Xuzhou Renci hospital has reached a series of achievements, including being elected as the honest private hospitals and ranking first, achieved the highest grade of "special satisfaction" in the third-party hospital satisfaction survey organized by the government; being rated as "the most beautiful hospital in China" and awarded the title of "the most beautiful hospital in China—the light of the city"; promoted to the third-grade orthopedic hospital in 2019; ranked in the forefront of original non-public hospitals in northern Jiangsu Province in the Chinese hospital competitiveness conference hosted by Asclepius Health in Hong Kong 2019; recognized as the "safe demonstration hospital" in Jiangsu Province 2019.ConclusionThe double QSSE refined management mode has the characteristics of standardization, quantification, comparison, easy assessment and easy replication, which improves not only the patient-centered medical experience, but also the hospital-department quality management system. It is an innovative hospital management mode that conforms to JCI standard and adapts to China's national conditions.
