Abstract

BACKGROUND: Physicians have become more responsible for pursuing healthcare efficiency. However, contemporary literature uses multiple terminologies to describe healthcare efficiency. To identify which term is best suitable for medical education to equip physicians to contribute to healthcare efficiency delivery in clinical practice, we performed a narrative review to elucidate these terms' meanings, commonalities, and differences.
