  3. The availability of health care is an inalienable constitutional right of the Russian Federation citizens Social access to health care is based on the following principles: • universality, accessibility, targeting; • the quality of medical care; • effectiveness.

  4. The achieved level of public health funding does not fully meet the requirements for fundingaccording to the territorial program of state guarantees of free medical care provision for the residents of the Region   Targeting of medical care is defined by the Program of Government Guarantees of Free Medical Care for Citizens   The conformity percentage of usedfunds for protection of the Region residents health  from all sources  to the estimated demand (on a program of state guarantees)

  5. Implementation  of the national project «Health» in 2006-2008 made it possible to • increase the availability of primary outpatient - polyclinic aid by 6% (number of visits per inhabitant 1 to 6.9 to 7.6 per year) • improve the accessibility of high-tech medical care by 76% compared with 2005

  6. Improvement of high tech medical care availability through its partial funding from the regional budget in regional specialized medical institutions (endoscopic and rentgen-surgical interventions,computed tomography, etc.)

By the end of 2008, the number of GPO will be brought up to 35.

  12. The availability of modern means of pharmacotherapy in health care is a critical factor of its quality and efficiency  However, currently in Russia: • as inall countries around the world, needs of population in drug provision face the problem of funds failure to cover the cost of treatment; • there is no any drug provision for citizens in outpatient departments and polyclinics, if they do not fall in any of the preferential categories; • there is an inadequate situation because of the federal law # 94 «About placing orders for goods, works, services for state and municipal needs». Buying medicine at the minimum price by auction, without regard to its quality, proven clinical efficacy and safety, is unacceptable both in terms of the doctors’ and the patients' position. When buying medicines in accordance with the law  # 94,patients compliance to certain drugs, the need in a long-term adjustment (titration) of drug dosage using expensive methods are not taken into account.

  13. Drug provision for federal and regional benefit recipients of the Pskov Region in 2008 • 150patients withhaemophilia, cystic fibrosis, hypophysealnanism, Gaucher disease, Myeloid leukemia, Multiple sclerosis, condition after organ or tissue transplantation.Total funding in 2008 - more than 136 million rubles.
