This study aims to investigate the performance of chest diseases departments using hospital performance indicators as specified in Pabon Lasso Modal (PLM). It is also intended to draw attention of hospital management on hospital performance issues to achieve a better level of functioning. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study analyzing chest diseases departments of state university and private university hospitals in Turkey. Convenient sampling method was chosen based on data availability of the hospitals and limitations of the PLM. Three major cities in Turkey (Ankara, Izmir and Istanbul) were chosen based on population and obtainable data for the sampling purposes. A total of 10 hospitals were selected, 5 of which were state university hospitals and the remaining 5 private university hospitals. The results indicated that all chest diseases departments of private university hospitals were in a higher zone from the public university hospitals according to the PLM.
