Abstract

In this paper, we present an analytical hierarchy process (AHP) based weighted goal programming model (WGP) for financial management of health care system in Hyderabad. The data are collected from the health care system's financial statements from 2010 to 2016. In this study, we considered four financial metrics such as liability, equity, income, asset, profit and proportion of values in the statement. The problem was solved using PM-QM for windows and the results are analysed. The proposed model can be used as a tool for health care systems/financial institutes in making decisions and develop strategies to deal with various economic scenarios.
