Abstract

to evaluate the medico-economic significance of neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD) in the Russian Federation, to calculate the economic burden of NLUTD in patients with targeted entities and to prepare suggestions for improving the methods of payment for the provision of medical care to patients with NLUTD in inpatient practice.an analysis of the literature and an expert assessment of the prevalence of NLUTD in the Russian Federation were performed. Due to the various etiology of NLUTD, the following entities were considered: craniocerebral trauma, acute stroke, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury (hereinafter referred to as targeted entities), characterized by the highest rate of NLUTD and high social significance (damage to the working-age population): traumatic brain injury, acute stroke, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury. The calculations of the economic burden of NLUTD and its main complications (stage 5 of chronic kidney disease (CKD), urinary tract infection) in the Russian Federation (using mainly the normative method) were carried out, based on national statistics, regulatory legal acts and expert assessments of healthcare specialists. Proposals have been prepared for improving the reimbursement (tariffs of the KSG) for payment of NLUTD in the inpatient practice.according to the study, the number of patients with NLUTD due to the group of targeted entities is estimated at 910 000. The economic burden (excluding indirect and unaccounted costs) of the NLUTD is 33.3 billion rubles per year. The burden associated with secondary complications (stage 5 CKD, urogenital infection) due to ineffective diagnosis and treatment of NLUTD is 51.6 billion rubles. The total costs on the NLUTD is estimated at 84.9 billion rubles. Direct costs, calculated by the normative method based on the analysis of standards of medical care per patient are 36,546 rubles per year. Provision of medical care to patients with NLUTD in accordance with federal guarantees within the framework of the compulsory medical insurance is provided in accordance with the tariffs of KSG st30.005 (profile "urology"). The KSG tariff for 2019 (taking into account the established standards of financial costs for one case of hospitalization in the inpatient department and the established cost-intensity coefficients (CZ) established by the CG is 21,495.07 rubles, which is 58% of the minimum need, excluding the cost of treatment of complications, according to the normative method of calculation. The real estimate of the tariff for the payment of treatment of NLUTD in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation is 35-38% of the minimum need, excluding the cost of treatment of complications, according to the normative method of calculation. The real estimate of the costs for the treatment of NLUTD in regions is 35-38% of the minimum need, excluding the cost of treatment of complications, according to the normative method of calculation. To provide effective specialized urological care in the framework of compulsory medical insurance at the rates of the CSG for neuro-urological care (st30.005), expert calculations of the actual cost of NLUTD therapy were made. The proposed average cost of the CSG and the values of the cost intensity factors: CSG (min) st30.005.1 - 39,936 rubles, CZ - 1.65; CSG (max) st30.005.2 - 68,531 rubles, CZ - 2.75. The weighted average savings while expanding the availability of complex neuro-urological care for patients with NLUTD in accordance with the proposed payment rates is 9.4 billion rubles per year.Evaluation of the prevalence and burden of NLUTD showed the high medical and economic significance of NLUTD in the Russian Federation. The results of the study indicate a significant discrepancy between the requirements and the real costs within federal guarantees for the organization of medical care for patients with NLUTD. To provide effective specialized urological care in the compulsory medical insurance at the rates of CSG for neuro-urological care, it is necessary to increase funding, through the correction at the federal level of the cost-intensity coefficient from 1.65 to 2.75 for the CSG st30.005, which will ensure the increase in the cost for a case of treatment in inpatient department in form 39 936 to 68 531 rubles. The weighted average savings while expanding the availability of complex neuro-urological care for patients with NLUTD in accordance with the proposed payment rates is 9.4 billion rubles per year.
