Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of this study is to compare the proportion of business articles in top general orthopaedic journals.

Design: Review.

Intervention: Categorize all articles from general orthopaedic journals with top four H-Index.

Main outcome measurement: Articles categorized as payer analysis (PA), cost analysis (CA), value-based practice (VBP), Management and human resources (HR), practice efficiency (PE) and the business of scholarship (SC).

Results and conclusions: JBJS, B&JJ, CORR, and JAAOS were identified as top orthopaedic journals. All had some level of business scholarship with an average of 3.4% of articles dedicated to business, ranging from 2 to 7%.  Of business-related articles 27% of articles were cost analysis, 25% focused on practice efficiency, 22% on Value based practices, 16% payer analysis, 7% business of scholarship and 4% on human resources. The lack of scholarship regarding human resources represents a significant opportunity for improvement as a profession.

Level of Evidence: IV; Review

Keywords: Business, management, human resources, cost, value, efficiency.
