The fact that medicine lags behind other sectors of the economy in terms of IT penetration was reported at the city forum of professionals "My Polyclinic" by the chairman of the board of the Digital Economy Development Fund, adviser to the President of the Russian Federation on Internet development (2016-2018) German Klimenko. "My opinion: medicine is in last place in terms of digitalization - in general, I think, military registration and enlistment offices, but let medicine remain so that I am not accused of anything. Doctors cannot reproduce by budding - only lawyers. Therefore, our number of lawyers has increased to 150 thousand graduates, and the same number of doctors as before," he complained.

explained that medicine spain cell phone number list is the most difficult sector for digitalization: "How can we explain the importance of digital technologies to young doctors? We need to create services that they will not be able to refuse, just like with a child and a tablet that cannot be taken away from them. The number of cases of medical care in the primary care level is about 1 billion. And in hospitals - about 30 million. It is important to digitalize the primary care level so that there are fewer cases in hospitals," the deputy minister said. - From the point of view of the regions, the situation is different - there are advanced ones, for example, Sakhalin, but there are those who are at the basic level, and we have to provide a uniform service throughout the country. Over the 10 years since the start of digitalization in medicine, many regions have created a variety of solutions. We need to bring them to a common denominator. Over the past two years, we have managed to do a lot, and COVID has shown why services are needed at the federal level for the entire country."

However, Pavel Pugachev noted the differences in the level of digitalization of Russian regions. "Unfortunately, the maturity level of individual medical information systems is low. In our opinion, it is necessary to more clearly define the criteria and parameters for using GIS (state information systems). 95% of state medical organizations have implemented systems and started transmitting data. But we need to look at qualitative, not just quantitative indicators. Using the example of medical and social expertise: 100% of our medical organizations ensure interaction with the bureau of medical and social expertise. But we are not concerned that a medical organization sent electronic documents once - it must do this regularly. In the first quarter of 2022, 42% of documents were sent to the ITU electronically, in the fourth, not yet finished quarter - 82%. There is dynamics," said the Deputy Minister of Health.
