A model of regional resource and managerial interaction for the development of export of medical services

Introduction. The export of medical services, implemented in seventy regions of the Russian Federation, in conditions of limited financing requires involvement in existing regional development programs. The analysis of scientific research by Russian and foreign scientists has revealed a gap in the methodology for assessing the level of realization of exports of medical services (EMS) in the regional resource and managerial potential. The task of the study was to develop a model for a comprehensive assessment of the realization of the resource and organizational potential of the export of medical services of the subject.

Materials and methods. During the research, the methods of bibliographic and information search of sources in document databases, as well as semantic search of sources on the Internet were used. The analysis of normative legal acts and methodological documents is carried out. The methods of system analysis, information and mathematical modeling were used.

Results. As a result of the study of the first three stages of the research, 39 factors of regional resource and managerial potential were identified, combined into 9 groups. Based on the identified factors, a comprehensive model was developed to assess the feasibility of the resource and managerial potential of the subject EMS.

Limitations of the study. The study considered no additional factors specific to special economic zones. Also, approved programs and established development institutions at the level of individual regions were not taken into account.

Conclusion. The qualitative and quantitative analysis of the region’s involvement in the development of EMS revealed the main factors of resource and managerial potential in the field of healthcare, foreign trade, tourism, national and humanitarian regional policy, as well as the involvement of scientific and academic circles. The constructed model of a comprehensive assessment of the realization of the EMS resource and managerial potential in the region allows 70 subjects participating in the federal project “Development of export of medical services” to conduct a primary assessment of the level of inclusion of exports of medical services in existing regional development programs.

Compliance with ethical standards. Research does not require the submission of a biomedical ethics committee opinion or other documents.
