- This study investigates how governance structures and resource availability affect Portuguese hospitals' operational and financial performance.
- Using data from 40 NHS hospitals and multivariate regression, it finds governance quality and resource availability positively link to better performance.
- External auditing, while necessary, negatively correlates with financial resources due to its scrutiny role, and reduced finances indirectly lower productivity.
- The research integrates governance and resources to assess hospital performance, offering a structural equation modeling (SEM) approach applicable to other healthcare systems.
