title: [The organization of ambulatory services for patients with rheumatoid diseases at an industrial enterprise].
abstract: The authors have elaborated a complex of economically profitable organizational and medical measures aimed at stabilization or reduction of temporary disability due to osteoarthrosis (OA) in workers of an industrial enterprise. As a result of epidemiological studies it has been established that at the enterprise under study the OA incidence exceeded the general populational one more than 5-fold, with the number of cases and days of temporary disability due to OA ranking the first among the leading causes of temporary disability. The complex of medico-organizational and treatment-and-prophylactic measures closely related to the industrial process and taking account of the patients' interests made it possible to stabilize, within a period of 6 months, the characteristics of temporary disability and to reduce economic losses due to OA.
