Feasibility Study of Establishing Day-Care Unit for Hospitals in Sri Lanka

The objective of the study is to assess the feasibility of setting up Day Care units at tertiary hospitals (TH), provincial general hospitals (PGH) and district general hospitals (DGH) to reduce hospitalization and improve efficiency. The Day Care unit would accommodate patients for the day and prepare for minor identified procedures- surgical, radiological and endoscopic. Presently these patients are admitted to hospitals for a number of days. Cost of operation/procedure itself will not change as the same is performed in the same operating theatre and by the same staff that is being done as an indoor procedure.
