Health-Care Reform and Ensuring Equal Access to Free Medical Services
The article analyzes health-care reforms in three directions: the transition to mandatory medical insurance, implementation of a policy to reduce the number of hospital beds and doctors, and reform of interbudgetary relations. What these three directions have in common is that they ignore the need to make free medical services accessible for all population strata, the reforms are haphazard and contradictory, and socioeconomic substantiation is lacking for the necessary spending and efficiency of the measures being implemented. The author concludes that a crisis situation has developed in health care as a result of the reforms.
