HAT 1.0 gives sectional score and each section has a range of scores that indicates the category under which the section falls. The scoring method is explained below:
|Category |Sectional Percentage Required |Overall Score (Tool) Required |
|Excellent |80% |175-208 |
|Good |70-80% |150-175 |
|Poor |60-70% |125-150 |
|Very Poor |< 60% |< 125 |
The sectional score helps in zeroing into the section which needs more attention to improve the overall quality of the hospital. The results and the graphs are attached for easy understanding of the score. On answering the questions the tool automatically gives the category under which each section falls and also graphically shows which section of the hospital needs to follow best management practices to reduce the problem due to wastes.
