[Approaches to shaping up a medical information-analytical system at a central district hospital]

The research topic, presented in the paper, is dedicated to the possibilities of managing the district healthcare element, i.e. central district hospital (CDH), focusing on the methods of setting up an information-and-analytical department at the CDH. An algorithm is designed for collecting and condensing the data meant for the CDM management needs; approaches to defining the managerial parameters and to creating a district data base are described. The topicality of the paper and of the algorithms outlined in it are highly favorable for recovering the managerial structure and for ensuring a high-quality medical care provided by rural patient-care facilities. The paper's concepts are also aimed at advancing the accessibility and quality of specialized medical care at the CDH and at ensuring the up-to-date standards of communications and management with the resources being shared rationally and with the cost-saving medical-care mode being maintained within district limits.
