Abstract

We face the problem of constructing a model which is suited for an effective evaluation of the quality of a health-care provider: to this purpose, we focus on some relevant indicators characterizing the various services run by the provider. We rely on a fuzzy modeling approach by using the interpretation (in terms of coherent conditional probability) of a membership function of a fuzzy set as a suitable likelihood.
