Abstract：To explore the resource allocation efficiency and its influencing factors of traditional Chinese
medicine hospitals in 30 provinces during the 13th Five ⁃ Year Plan period，the BCC model was established to
calculate the average value of resource allocation efficiency of TCM hospitals in China during the past 5 years，
based on the data of China Health Statistical Yearbook and China Statistical Yearbook from 2016 to 2020，using
Tobit model of panel data to verify the proposed hypothesis and discover the factors affecting efficiency. During the
13th Five⁃Year Plan period，the resource allocation of TCM hospitals in 30 provinces was DEA effective in 4, weak
effective in 6，and ineffective in 20. The doctor allocation density and the ratio of medical and nursing
administrators have significant negative and positive effects on the overall efficiency of resource allocation in TCM
hospitals. The spatial distribution density and competition between TCM and Western medicine have significant
negative and positive effects on the scale efficiency of resource allocation in TCM hospitals，respectively. During
the 13th Five⁃Year Plan period，the resource allocation efficiency of TCM hospitals in most provinces of China still
needs to be improved. The existing resources should be allocated as a whole，the level of medical technology should
be raised，and the personnel structure should be set up reasonably. We should establish a flexible incentive
mechanism，attach equal importance to both Chinese and Western medicine，and give prominence to the
characteristics of Chinese medicine.
