Abstract
Introduction. The article reveals the role of university clinics (hereinafter - UC) in the system of healthcare institutions in Ukraine and their role in implementing the right of every citizen to receive free medical care in state and communal healthcare institutions at the expense of the state budget under the program of medical guarantees. The results of a medical and social study to determine patients' attitudes towards UCs and identify risk factors for non-acceptance are presented.
The aim. To determine the place of the University Clinic of the O.O. Bogomolets National Medical University in the medical-industrial cluster system of Kyiv city, conduct a medical and social study of patient attitudes towards the university clinic, and identify the main factors of non-acceptance.
Materials and methods. The study was conducted on the principle of systematicity, using medical-statistical methods, methods of anonymous questionnaire survey, and analytical generalization. The construction of the sample of respondents is based on the fact that, based on the study of their opinion, it is possible to draw conclusions about the public opinion of potential clients.
The results of the study show that university clinics, as a component of the healthcare system, meet the needs of citizens in terms of the effectiveness of services provided and accessibility to the population. With innovative equipment and the involvement of highly qualified specialists from the University's departments in the diagnostic and treatment process, university clinics are increasingly gaining the trust and support of patients.
The results of the survey confirm that the university clinic of the National Medical University named after O.O. Bogomolets has successfully integrated into the medical-industrial cluster of Kyiv, establishing cooperation with the university, the Ministry of Health, other ministries and agencies, as well as with patients.
Analysis of the socio-demographic indicators of the respondents in 2022 showed a significant volume of services provided by the clinic to the population of Kyiv and other regions of Ukraine (with the highest number of visits from pensioners - 83, and civil servants - 57 out of 213 surveyed), thus ensuring the implementation of the state program of medical guarantees for citizens. The risk of low probability recommendations by the clinic is influenced by increasing age (p=0.013) and decreasing educational level (p=0.040) of patients. The risk of low satisfaction with the comfort of the clinic increases (p=0.002) when patients visit the medical facility on the recommendation of acquaintances (patients of the clinic).
Conclusions. The positive conclusion of the survey is the absence of a risk of probability of re-appealing to the UC based on the analyzed characteristics.
