[Cost availability and patient satisfaction of hospital care].
The results of sociological questionnaire of 1496 patients of oblast and region hospitals related to cost availability and patient satisfaction of hospital care. About 75% of respondents considered their treatment spendings as significant. It is established that degree of patients' satisfaction of hospital care depends on length of stay at the in-patient department. The longer it is the fewer patients satisfied with medical care are. It is proposed to organize in hospitals among socially unprotected patients evaluation of individual spendings for medical care to protect constitutional rights of the population and to reveal factual cost of medical care in the framework of the territorial program of public guarantees.
