Abstract
The legislation in force in the Russian Federation guarantees HIV patients protection of their rights in labor, education and other spheres of life, as well as free counseling, diagnosis and treatment of HIV infection. The continued increase in the number of infected people and, more importantly, the emergence of the HIV epidemic from risk groups into the general population highlights the need for additional improvement in the effectiveness of measures taken to counter the spread of infection. In this regard, it is necessary to use the most rational measures, both from the point of view of efficiency and safety, and from the point of view of costs. The most suitable tool for solving these problems is pharmacoeconomical analysis. At the same time, conducting pharmacoeconomical analysis in the field of HIV infection, as well as in any other nosology, involves the need to take into account certain features at the stages of planning and implementation of the study. It is necessary to highlight some key features of the methodology of pharmacoeconomical analysis in the assessment of healthcare technologies in the field of HIV infection, in particular, cost minimization analysis, which involves choosing a medical technology with minimal costs by comparing the monetary value of alternative technologies, provided the same therapeutic effectiveness. The main object of the study was the documented medical histories of HIV-infected patients, statistical and analytical methods of analysis were used and it was established that in the Russian Federation and in Kuzbass there are all drugs for the treatment of patients with HIV infection included in modern lists of treatment standards according to clinical recommendations. The difference in the cost of antiretroviral drugs at the price of government funding has been established, which affects the costs of treating HIV-infected patients.
