<abstract displayLabel="Summary">New research into the Uk's hospitals has found a clear link between key management practices and a range of quality and financial-performance measures. The study indicates that better target sitting, talent management, and business leadership by doctors are correlated with lower rates of infection in hospitals and of readmission, more satisfied patients and more productive staffs, and higher financial margings. Overall, though, the management practices of the UK National Health Service hospitals lag well behind those of their practice-sector counterparts and of UK industrial companies</abstract>
