  Abstract: Objective: Based on the background of high-quality development, we analyze the operational efficiency of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) hospitals in Chinas Yangtze River Economic Belt in 2021 and explore the impact of external environmental factors on operational efficiency, so as to provide a reference for promoting the high-quality development of TCM hospitals in the Yangtze River Economic Belt. Methods: The three-stage DEA model was used to analyze the operational efficiency of TCM hospitals in 11 provinces and cities in the Yangtze River Economic Zone in China in 2021. Results: After three-stage DEA analysis, the values of comprehensive efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency of TCM hospitals in Chinas Yangtze River Economic Belt are 0.976, 0.986 and 0.990, respectively. 5 provinces and cities, Shanghai, Jiangsu, Hunan, Chongqing and Guizhou, are efficient before and after the adjustment, and the comprehensive efficiency of Zhejiang, Anhui, Hubei, Jiangxi, Sichuan and Yunnan have increased compared with that before the adjustment. Ranking of the average value of the comprehensive efficiency of TCM hospitals operation in the three major city clusters of the Yangtze River Economic Belt after adjustment: Chengdu-Chongqing city cluster (0.998) > city cluster in the Yangtze River Delta (0.964) > city cluster in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River (0.962). Conclusion: The operational efficiency of TCM hospitals in the Yangtze River Economic Zone has been underestimated, and the comprehensive efficiency is mainly affected by scale efficiency; there are differences in the operational efficiency of TCM hospitals in the three major urban agglomerations, and balanced development is needed between regions; the operational efficiency of TCM hospitals is affected by the external environment, and it is necessary to improve the external environment; it is necessary to strengthen the construction of digital and informatization of TCM, and to pay attention to the role of talents in TCM, so as to promote the high-quality development of TCM hospitals.
