Analysis of medical care in Ukraine for nephrological patients in 2019

Abstract

The work aimed to conduct a rating of nephrological services in the regions of Ukraine by using the method of complex statistical coefficients. Methods. Evaluation of nephrological services in the regions of Ukraine was made by using indicators of the structure, health care resources, quality and efficiency of renal medical care of patients with chronic kidney disease and patients with acute kidney injury. Results. The place of each province in the national rating of the state of renal medical care was identified. Conclusions. The organization, availability and quality of medical care for nephrological patients in Ukraine do not meet existing needs. The significant differences in the specialized nephrological care between the regions of Ukraine can be solved out through the implementation of appropriate management and financial decisions.
