This paper aims to improve the efficacy assessment of County-level Integrated Health Organizations (CIHOs) in China. By analyzing CIHOs in Fujian Province, an empirical study was done to confirm the efficacy of the combined weighted-grey synthetic evaluation approach. The combined weights of evaluation indicators are calculated using the suggested method, which combines the analytical network process method and the coefficient of variation method. The grey center points of the CIHOs to be evaluated are determined, the whitenization weight functions is constructed, a comprehensive evaluation matrix is established, and then the composite score values are calculated and ranked. A more thorough evaluation of CIHOs can be accomplished scientifically using this comprehensive approach.
