Development Prospects

Currently, among the priority tasks of the health care system is to improve the quality of medical care provided to the population and the accessibility of services. Incomplete staffing is a serious slowdown to the provision of quality care. The shortage of medical personnel is widespread in medicine, which is especially pronounced in primary health care, and endocrinology is no exception. The shortage of personnel is directly related to the problems of accessibility and quality of medical care. Reorganizing the system of professional training, retraining and continuing medical education in a volume that allows eliminating quantitative and qualitative defects in providing care for people with endocrine diseases, as well as analyzing staffing needs and planning based on the real needs of the population, will help to achieve the solution to the set tasks of the healthcare system.

The survey comprised 1,737 patients of various social groups of population of Moscow and 203 physicians of polyclinics. At self-rating of health, 13.2% of respondents determined it as unsatisfactory, 45.1% as satisfactory and 31.3% as good. In all population groups, the most called-for proved to be polyclinic institutions. The high level of satisfaction of patients with quality of emergency medical care was established in all groups. The quality of medical care in polyclinics and hospitals was assessed significantly lower. The most negatively assessed criteria turned out transition to fee-for-service forms of medical support and time limits of waiting for all modes of medical care, except emergency medical care and district therapist. The evaluation by physicians of their own activity and present problems is characterized by their unanimity in need of increasing of salary (100%) and increasing of typical sectoral standards of time of reception of a patient (96.5%), decreasing of intensity of work of medical personal (92.3%) and reduction of some forms of record cards with the purpose of releasing of time and attention of physician for a patient (88.4%). The disrespectful attitude of patients to medical personnel was mentioned by 77.3% of physicians which is a new phenomenon testifying loss of confidence in patient-physician relationship. The quality of implemented work was assessed equally and rather high by both young and experienced physicians. The positive and negative aspects of reorganization of health care were analyzed. Two alternatives of problems were established to focus plans of development of system of Moscow health care to support accessible and qualitative medical care of population.

Quality Of Medical Care

BACKGROUND Diabetes Mellitus is a worldwide health problem and the leading cause of premature death with increasing prevalence over time. Usually, along with it, Hypertension presents and acts as another risk factor that increases mortality risk. Both diseases impact the country's health while also producing an economic burden for society, causing billions of dollars to be invested in their management. OBJECTIVE The present study evaluated the quality of medical care for patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus (DM), hypertension (HBP), and both pathologies (DM+HBP) within a public health system in Mexico, according to the official Mexican standard for each pathology. METHODS 45,498 patients were included from 2012 to 2015. All information was taken from the electronic medical records database, exported as anonymized data for research purposes. Each patient record was compared against the standard to test the quality of medical care. RESULTS Glycemia with hypertension goals reached 29.6% in DM+HBP, 48.6% in DM, and 53.2% in HBP. The goals of serum lipids were reached by 3% in DM+HBP, 5% in DM, and 0.2% in HBP. Glycemia, hypertension, and LDL cholesterol reached 0.04%. 15% of patients had an undiagnosed disease of diabetes or hypertension. Clinical follow-up examinations reached 20% for foot examination and clinical eye examination in the whole population. Specialty referral reached 1% in angiology or cardiology in the whole population. CONCLUSIONS Goals for glycemic and hypertension reached 50% in the overall population, while serum lipids, clinical follow-up examinations, and referral to a specialist were deficient. Patients who had both diseases had more consultations, better control for hypertension and lipids, but inferior glycemic control. Overall, quality care for DM and/or HBP has not been met according to the standards. While patients with DM and HBP do not have a current standard to evaluate their own needs.

At present, the quality and availability of medical care are the aspects to which close attention is paid in the system of organizing medical care. One of the ways to achieve a high level of quality and accessibility of medical care is building up human resources, i.e. the presence of highly qualified general practitioners, sub-specialties and middle medical personnel in sufficient numbers in a medical organization. Currently, the oncological service of Russia has been assigned tasks to fulfill the instructions from the State Program for the Development of Health Care. The results of the work should lead to a decrease in mortality and an increase in the quality of life of the population. To address the issue of reducing mortality from malignant neoplasms, in particular from prostate cancer, a three-level system of oncological care has been created on the territory of the Nizhny Novgorod Region, including 1 regional center, 2 interdistrict cancer centers, 88 primary oncology rooms and 96 examination rooms. The tasks set to reduce morbidity and mortality from oncological diseases can be realized only with close interaction of the oncological service with the primary health care sector, in which the prevention should be the priority direction of work.

The article explores the individual patient's right to refuse, withdraw, or insist on medical treatment where there is conflict over these issues involving health care personnel or institutions, family members, legal requirements, or third parties concerned with public policy or religious/ideological/political interests. Issues of physician assistance in dying and medical futility are considered. The basis and the current legal status of these rights is examined, and it is concluded that threats to the autonomy of patients, to the privacy of the doctor/patient relationship, and to the quality of medical care should be taken seriously by individuals, medical practitioners, and others concerned with developing and maintaining reasonable, effective, and ethical health care policy.
