- Abstract
Hospital administration has come of age since the last 50 years. During this period, there have been ample efforts expended by researchers across the world in attempting to understand the nature of work performed by the administrators in general and hospital administrators in specific. Surprisingly, as evident from literature survey, not much work has been done to understand what are the roles performed by the hospital administrators either by type of hospitals employing them or by specialization by which they perform their tasks. Further, how much of time do they spend in such roles while performing their tasks? Understanding the roles performed by them not only contributes to their personal and professional effectiveness, but also contributes to higher quality treatment outcomes satisfying to the patients and to the superiors in the hospitals, encouraged by such views, the present study explores the roles performed by the administrators representing public and private hospitals, medical and non-medical units, senior, middle and junior levels of management. Interestingly, the Implications for practice and future research have been drawn.
