Abstract
Özel sağlık sigortalarının rolü ve yaygınlığı tüm Dünyada sürekli olarak gelişme
göstermektedir. Özel sağlık sigortalarının böylesine yaygınlık göstermesi, sigorta
şirketlerinin faaliyetlerinde etkinlik ve verimlilik durumlarını gündeme getirmiştir.
Şirketler etkinlik ölçümü yaparak kaynaklarını ne kadar verimli kullanabildiklerini ve
faaliyetlerini hangi düzeyde etkin yürüttüklerini tespit ve analiz edebilmektedir. Bu
sayede, zayıf veya yetersiz kaldıkları alanlarda gerekli düzeltme ve iyileştirmeleri
yaparak yoğun rekabetin hakim olduğu piyasa koşullarında daha başarılı şekilde faaliyet
yürütebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada 2017, 2018 ve 2019 yıllarında faaliyet gösteren sigorta
şirketlerinin hastalık/sağlık branşındaki etkinliklerini ölçmek ve değerlendirmek
amaçlanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda, Veri Zarflama Analizi yöntemi kullanılarak bahsi geçen
3 yılın tamamında hastalık/sağlık branşında prim üretimi yapan 31 sigorta şirketinin
sağlık sigortası etkinlik analizleri yapılmış ve akabinde etkin olmayan sigorta şirketleri
için etkin şirketler baz alınarak referans grupları oluşturulmuştur. Araştırmada elde
edilen bulgular doğrultusunda söz konusu şirketlerinin toplam etkinliğinin analizin
yapıldığı 3 yıl içerisinde sürekli yükseliş seyri gösterdiği saptanmıştır. Analizden elde
edilen bulgular ışığında, Türkiye’de özel sağlık sigortalarının etkinlik düzeylerini
yükseltmeyi hedefleyen bazı öneri ve argümanlara yer verilmiştir.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Özel Sağlık Sigortası, Veri Zarflama Analizi, Etkinlik.
The role and prevalence of private health insurance is constantly evolving all over the world. The prevalence of private health insurances has brought up the issues of efficiency and productivity of insurance companies' activities. By measuring efficiency, companies can determine and analyze how efficiently they can use their resources and how effectively they perform their activities. In this way, by making the essential corrections and improvements in areas where they are weak or insufficient, they can operate more successfully in market conditions where intense competition is dominant. In this study, it is aimed to measure and evaluate the activities of insurance companies operating in 2017, 2018 and 2019 in the health insurance branch. In this direction, health insurance efficiency analyzes of 31 insurance companies that produced premiums in the disease/health branch during all of the aforementioned 3 years were executed using the Data Envelopment Analysis method. Then reference groups were created for the inefficient insurance companies based on the efficient companies. In line with the findings obtained from the research, it was determined that the total efficiency of the companies in question showed a continuous upward trend during the 3 years. In the light of the findings acquired from the analysis, some suggestions and arguments aiming to increase the efficiency levels of private health insurances in Turkey are given. Keywords: Private Health Insurance, Data Envelopment Analysis, Efficiency
