Summary/Abstract: Attempts to introduce regulations on cost accounting in hospitals have been made several times. The recently introduced regulation (of October 26, 2020, Journal of Laws of 2020, item 2045) contains recommendations regarding the cost accounting standard (CAS) for service providers. The hastily prepared and introduced regulation was aimed at enabling comparability of data on the costs of services provided between hospitals and the assessment of their quality. It was also about the possibility of comparing the effects of applied therapeutic procedures and increasing the quality of management in medical entities. The conducted studies on the advancement of the implementation of KDS in hospitals indicate that hospitals are poorly prepared for implementation and contain many critical opinions about the functionality and possibilities of using KDS in hospital management.
