A COMPARATIVE STUDY ON TWO MEDICAL CARE SYSTEMS FOR GASTRIC AND DUODENAL DISEASES IN INDUSTRY

Abstract In Japan, despite its private-dominant and disjointed health-care system, national initiatives to coordinate various types of health-care facilities are lacking. Municipal governments manage this task with limited resources. This study describes a successful example of a bottom-up approach to create city-wide collaboration for disaster preparedness. In Minato City, located in central Tokyo, a group of physicians created a project involving a city-wide disaster medical care drill. The city Public Health Center, in charge of health-care systems including disaster medicine, helped the group to increase proponents of the project. The city-wide disaster drill started in November 2017; thereafter, the drills were held every year. Participation in drills by various health-care personnel helped establish a city-wide system for disaster medical care, coordination mechanisms among stakeholders, increased motivation among health-care personnel, and development of in-hospital systems. This approach is flexible and applicable to various forms of health-care systems in other areas.

Quality Of Medical Care

Purpose of the study. To analyze the concept of creating patient-oriented medicine, the prerequisites for its emergence, the difficulties of introducing it into existing health systems based on foreign experience. Materials and methods. The main materials of the study were used sources of foreign literature, which presents the concept of patient-oriented medicine, analyzed the prerequisites for changing models of health care in the European Union, USA and Asia in accordance with the principles of patient-oriented medicine, as well as data on the components and levels of patient-oriented medicine in foreign countries Results. The analyzed literature quite fully describes the difficulties of introducing patient-oriented medicine into existing health care systems. Particular attention should be paid to a multidisciplinary approach, continuity at different levels of medical care and effective communication between the physician and the patient towards the integration of this model into clinical practice. The analysis of the availability of medical care in developed countries and its dependence on social status, ethnicity and disease of the patient. Conclusion. Patient-oriented medicine is a new model for planning, implementing and evaluating medical services, which is based on mutually beneficial partnerships between medical workers, patients and their families. Taking into account the current problems of domestic health care, the introduction of the patient-oriented model will significantly improve the quality of medical care provided to the population of our country. Globally, the implementation of the principles of this model is far from complete. In the Russian Federation, targeted work in this direction requires additional scientific research, systematization of available data, and development of new legal documents

The Impact

The subject of this article is Law of the Russian Federation on Amendments to the Constitution of the Russian Federation (14.03.2020 No. 1-Federal Constitutional Law) «On improving the regulation of certain issues of the public power organization and functioning», namely, aspects of «coordination of health care» and «protection of the family, motherhood and childhood». The authors analyzed the issues of the medical care provision centralization, the impact of these amendments on the legal capacity of citizens. For a more in-depth analysis, the experience of foreign countries (Canada and Germany) was used. Despite the fact that the health care systems of the countries cited as an example differ in their essence and organization, nevertheless, they influence the formation of the availability of medicine for the population. As a result of the study of this experience, it was concluded that the delegation of freedom in the provision of medical care to lower levels of government allows to provide to the population affordable and high-quality medical care. It is noted that at present it is necessary to review the degree of participation of local governments in ensuring the availability of medical care in accordance with the federal law.
