A recent issue of this Journal carried the Kenneth G. Blackfan Memorial Lecture delivered to the Children's Hospital Alumni Association in Boston on May 30, 1973.1 It was given by Dr. Cicely Williams and entitled "Health Services in the Home." In her message directed at pediatric academia, Dr. Williams essentially said, "Be off with your ultrascience, your superspecialists ... Give thought instead to the thousands who are sick ... Teachers, stop seducing the very best into your snare of enzymes, isotopes and transducers, leaving only a small group to replace our dwindling cohort of primary care deliverers." That very same issue carried a commentary entitled "Primary Medical Care and Medical Research Training" by Dr. David G. Nathan of the Children's Hospital Medical Center.2

A survey of appointment breaking in the Medical Clinic of the Boston Children's Hospital Medical Center showed that approximately 20% of patients broke their appointments. These patients were more likely to have shown evidence of social disorganization. Personal physician care appeared to lower the broken appointment rate although there appeared to be an irreducible minimum which in either the personal physician clinic or in the private office was a cancellation. Additional gaps in medical care noted in those who broke their appointments included inadequate immunizations, dissatisfactions with medical care, and ill-defined need to see a physician.

Insufficient funding of the health system increased demand for medical services lead to a limited access to free medical care and growth of paid medical services. Currently, the specifics of the procedure for providing of paid medical services in children’s hospitals are a problem in the field of rendering of medical care for children. An anonymous survey of 1479 parents of children aged 0 to 18 years who were treated at four multidisciplinary hospitals of St Petersburg were conducted, in order to study the prevalence, structure and procedure of providing of paid medical services. Despite having medical insurance, the provision of paid medical services is widespread in the children’s hospital. According to the results of the survey, 29.6% of parents are forced to use personal funds to pay for medical services in a children’s hospital. Most often, respondents pay for medicines, laboratory tests, instrumental research, medical consultations of the specialists, surgeries and medical devices. The order of their provision is often violated. Parents who used the paid services in a children’s hospital, in most cases, had higher education, low material prosperity of the family, and previous experience of being with a child in the hospital. The highest percentage of paid medical services was recorded during hospitalization of pediatric patients in the emergency order and undergo treated on the surgical departments. Low awareness and lack of legal activity of parents in the acquisition on compulsory health insurance are revealed.
