About
Jingya Zhou is a health economics and surgical outcomes researcher whose work focuses on optimizing resource allocation and cost-efficiency in complex pancreatic surgeries within China’s tertiary healthcare system. Her major contributions center on evaluating Diagnosis-Related Group (DRG) payment models and the economic impact of robotic surgery. In her most-cited study, “DRG payment for major pancreatic surgery,” Zhou analyzed cost homogeneity within the HB13 DRG category, identifying key cost-influencing factors and proposing evidence-based refinements to improve grouping efficacy—a critical step toward fairer reimbursement and resource management. Her second influential paper, “Robotic surgery reduces the consumption of medical consumables,” provides a cost analysis demonstrating that robotic-assisted pancreatic procedures significantly lower medical consumable usage compared to traditional approaches, offering actionable insights for hospitals seeking to balance surgical innovation with financial sustainability. With a combined citation count of nine and rising, Zhou’s work is shaping policy discussions on DRG optimization and surgical cost containment. Her research is particularly valuable for health administrators, surgeons, and policymakers aiming to enhance value-based care in high-resource surgical settings.
