DEA is a specific method used for measuring efficiency of units. In the theoretical part of this thesis, basic principles of data envelopment analysis are explained and particular DEA models are introduced including their modifications. It also includes a description of the current state of the European healthcare systems. In the practical part the efficiency of European healthcare systems is calculated using specific DEA models described in the theoretical part. The evaluation of efficiency and readiness of European healthcare systems for the covid-19 pandemic is described in the conclusion. |
