Abstract
ObjectiveTo understand the current situation and trend of nursing cost research in China so as to provide a reference for researchers in the field of nursing cost research.
MethodsWe retrieved literature on nursing cost from January 1, 1990 to December 13, 2019 in China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) . CiteSpace software was used for visual analysis.
ResultsA total of 463 related literature were obtained, and the number of publications was on the rise as a whole, and research institutions had little cooperation. Nursing economics, nursing human resources, nursing management, cost analysis were the main research directions at present. Long-term care insurance with the highest emergent word intensity was the research frontier in the field.
ConclusionsWe should strengthen the cooperation in scientific research institutions, and rely on big data, computers and other means to establish a nursing cost accounting model, and extend the scope of research to communities and homes so as to provide a quantitative basis for Chinese long-term care insurance compensation standards.
