Risk Assessment And Management

Abstract: In recent years, the Chinese government has introduced a series of policies to promote the health care reform and further promote the hospital industry towards marketization, which makes the hospital M & A continue to heat up. In order to effectively integrate the existing resources, expand the operation scale, strengthen the comprehensive strength, improve the hospital's core competitiveness, make the M & A behavior more scientific to promote the deepening of the medical system reform, this paper studies the risk evaluation and management of M & A based on the theory of hospital M & A. The risks in the current M & A include financial risk, strategic risk, transaction risk, integration risk, etc. These risks will restrict the future development of hospitals, and even lead to the failure of mergers and acquisitions and huge economic losses. Therefore, correct risk assessment and management is the key to the success of M & A. By applying the qualitative identification method, the quantitative analysis method and the expert investigation method as well as making corresponding management adjustment and countermeasures, the risk probability can be reduced and the success rate of M & A can be improved so as to realize the strategic goal. In the hospital M & A, the use of risk assessment and management can prevent and evade risks, which enables the industry chain to extend, helps the development of the industry and provides better medical and health services for the people.

Assessment Bias

Many auditors use an audit methodology that requires a strategic risk assessment of their client's business model as a first step for assessing audit risks. This study examines whether the holistic perspective that auditors acquire in making a strategic risk assessment influences the extent to which they adjust account-level risk assessments when they encounter changes in accounts that are inconsistent with information about client operations. Based on halo theory from the performance evaluation literature, we hypothesize that auditors who (1) perform (do not perform) strategic assessment, and (2) develop favorable (unfavorable) strategic risk assessments, are less (more) likely to adjust account-level risk assessments for inconsistent fluctuations. Data from two laboratory experiments using experienced auditors support both hypotheses. Findings suggest that the halo effect generated during strategic assessment influences judgment by altering auditor tolerance for inconsistent fluctuations.

Risk Assessment And Management

The aim of this research was to conduct a risk assessment and management of psychological, structural, social and economic determinants (PSSED) in a suicide attempt. The sample consisted of 353 individuals who had a recorded history of suicidal attempt; and 20 professional individuals by purposive sampling method within a descriptive cross-sectional design. Worksheets for RAM and AHP were used for data collection in this study. The rate of suicide attempt was 7.21 per 100,000 population in this study. Analysis showed that depression and mental disorders; personality disorders; family problems; socio-cultural and economic problems; lack of awareness; and low level of education have a high level of risk for suicide attempts. Psychiatric and psychological services; awareness and knowledge of life skills; medical services to dysfunctional families; development of community-based planning for PSSED of suicide; and employment and entrepreneurship services may lower suicide attempt risk.
