[Health care standards for surgical patients in clinical hospital]

Abstract

In Russian Federation the Obligatory Health Insurance Standards are based on the a priori expert assessments but not on statistical analysis of really recorded cases. This leads to the essential standard incompleteness, indistinctness and heterogeneity. In Vishnevsky Institute of surgery the "Automatized system for care registration in hospital" was designed, and data base on more than 10,000 patients treated in 1995 to 1999 was created giving now the starting-point for further efforts for overcoming the above standards insufficiency.
