Reporting performance is necessary in  order to be accountable for the organizations''  performance. Performance reporting is more difficult  in nonprofit organizations than in for-profit  organizations since no profitability information can  be communicated. Nonprofits tend to focus  on other concepts to define performance; mainly  efficiency, effectiveness and social value.  The main theory on nonprofit performance is  described in the Organizational Effectiveness  literature. Impact assessment has been suggested as  a way to measure nonprofit organizational  performance. This concept is related to the  effectiveness concept of goal attainment, but goes  one step further and focuses on impact rather than  mere outcomes. In this research a first attempt is  made to measure the impact of a specific Dutch  nonprofit organization, the Netherlands Heart  Foundation.  The impact is estimated on  the costs related to AMI patients in the working  population.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783843370035\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAn impact measurement study of the Netherlands Heart Foundation on the burden of disease of AMI-patients\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783843370035","offer_id":39470082064477,"sku":"9783843370035","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/669eceec-2963-475a-9efb-20883664488b.jpg?v=1776319468","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/impact-measurement-to-improve-accountability-of-nonprofits-von-fiona-burger","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
