title: [Method of evaluation of the efficiency of laboratory systems].
abstract: The paper proposes a model criterion for evaluating the sociomedical efficiency of the operation of laboratory data measuring systems. The information theory was used to compare the goal of diagnostic use of laboratory systems, which shown up through the prevalence of diseases, the sensitivity and specificity of diagnostic tests with the amount of information got at the outlet of the system. Thus, one criteria combines medical and engineering approaches to evaluating the efficiency of complex systems.
