Abstract
Believing that nurses must agree on a uniform system for defining nursing hours and on a method for determining costs, the author describes how an automated patient classification system was enhanced as a preliminary step to cost out nursing. Nursing administrators are encouraged to refine patient classification systems so that accurate data for fiscal and staffing management can be generated.Entities:
