Abstract

Purposes : To analyze and examine the relationship between competencies and job performance outcomes in financial and accounting operations among health personnel within the health service network of Roi Et Province.

Study design : This study employed a cross-sectional design.

Materials and Methods : The sample consisted of 132 health personnel involved in financial and accounting tasks within health service networks and district public health offices in Roi Et Province. Participants were selected through stratified random sampling combined with simple random sampling using a lottery method. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire with a content validity index (CVI) ranging from 0.80 to 1.00, an Alpha coefficient of 0.93, and item discrimination power ranging from 0.42 to 0.78. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and multiple regression analysis.

Main findings : Overall, both competencies and job performance outcomes of financial and accounting personnel were rated at a high level (Mean±SD. = 4.12±0.51 and Mean±SD. = 4.20±0.78, respectively). Knowledge and personal characteristics were found to be significantly associated with job performance outcomes (p < .05). Together, these two factors explained 23.4% of the variance in job performance outcomes.

Conclusion and recommendations : The findings highlight that knowledge and personal characteristics of personnel are critical determinants of effective financial and accounting performance in public health organizations. Strengthening these factors may enhance organizational efficiency and service quality with in health networks.
