Abstract

This comparative analysis is the first example of systematic evaluation of the quality of health care concerning diabetes patients in the Czech Republic. Data concerning the Czech Republic were obtained from two cross sectional studies. Comparison was done with an adequate study from 8 new European Union countries and other published studies. Regarding short term parameters of quality of diabetes patient's health care no significant differences were observed between the Czech Republic and Eastern even Western European countries. On the other hand we could be concerned with the unsatisfactory levels certain parameters such as HbA1c. Based on this pilot project it is evident that there is a need of continuous follow-up of parameters of the quality of health care of diabetes patients especially with respect of more effective evaluation of changes in the treatment algorithms. Valid parameters of the quality of the health care are essential milestones for establishment of detailed pharmacoeconomic analyses which would help for sustainable investments in the treatment of the diabetic patients in the Czech Republic.
