Improving Efficiency of the Healthcare System of the Kyrgyz Republic
Повышение эффективности системы здравоохранения в Кыргызской Республике

Abstract

The constant increase in health care costs associated with the emergence of new medical technologies and medicines is a general trend for all countries. Kyrgyzstan spends less than 4% of its gross domestic product on healthcare. Unlike other branches of the national economy, the results of various health care activities, its services and programs are analyzed from the standpoint of social, medical, and economic efficiency, among which medical efficiency is a priority. With regard to health care, there are three types of efficiency: social; medical; economic. Without evaluating the results of medical and social efficiency, economic efficiency cannot be determined. The effectiveness of health care depends on the correct distribution and use of limited resources. In the Kyrgyz Republic, a significant part of financial resources is spent at the level of inpatient care, compared to primary healthcare organizations. An analysis of the structure of the use of financial resources shows that the share of funds allocated for drug provision of patients is insignificant and is shifted to patients. Most of the resources allocated to healthcare organizations are spent on salaries of medical workers. As a result of the analysis, a conclusion is made about the need to increase the motivation of primary health care workers. JEL Code I18 G28 I1
