This paper presents a method for estimation and test of firm-specific scale efficiency using data envelopment analysis (DEA). The use of a simple bootstrap algorithm is proposed to perform firm-specific inference for scale efficiency. An empirical application using Swedish hospital data is...

This paper presents a bootstrap approach to calculate confidence intervals for firm-specific Malmquist productivity indices obtained from data envelopment analysis (DEA) models. The bootstrap is easily implemented and allows identification of production units that have significant productivity...

Treatment with RLAI is suggested to result in improved QALYs combined with cost savings compared with haloperidol LAI among the Swedish, high-risk non-compliant schizophrenia patient population. In the general schizophrenia population, RLAI also resulted in positive incremental QALYs and cost...
