Increasing competition in the health care industry has caused many hospitals to use innovative management tools to improve performance and maintain competitive advantages. At Barberton Citizens Hospital, a balanced scorecard was implemented recently when senior management redefined the hospital's mission and corporate values. The results were impressive. Operational measures improved during the first year of the implementation, and they led to a significant increase in revenues and profit. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
