THE RESULTS AND PERSPECTIVES OF THE SVERDLOVSKAYA OBLAST TB-CONTROL FACILITIES REORGANIZATION

Abstract

The in consecutive order of the structural reorganization of the Sverdlovskaya oblast TB-control facilities is described. The consistent consolidation (in 2006-2012) of the different level TB-units (municipal and regional) ensure the integrated system of TB-facilities, which is capable in effective regional TB-control programme realization and can provide all kind of medical services (including high-technology) for various categories of patients. The main problem has continued to this day is the poor resource base of TB-facilities, which can not comply with the current sanitary regulations. This problem will be solved, as well as shortage of in-patients’ beds (365 roughly), by bringing into service the first and the second stage of the leading regional TB center. According the plan, in 2014-2016 all the regional TB-facilities and TB-departments will be integrated with the single juridical person creation.
