in the literature, hospitals often resort to outsource within the framework of
transaction cost theory in service provision, also its observed in the result
of this study; hospitals are getting profit via outsourcing services and they
could focus on providing their basic ability ‘health services’. Transaction

interrelated concepts in businesses. One of the areas that is the most observed
in Turkey is the outsource of imaging services. With this study, MRI services
performed for 9 months in 2017 through outsourcing in a university hospital
were examined within the framework of the transaction cost theory and it was
determined that the hospital earned 511.798,18 TL profit. As in the literature,
hospitals often resort to outsourcing within the framework of transaction cost
theory in service provision, outsourcing services for their profit and they
were also observed in the result of this study, where they could better focus
on providing health services with basic ability.
