Thông tin chi tiết
Tóm tắt : | Georgia has made progress in improving the health of its population, particularly over the past decade. The country adopted a number of state-based reforms in the health sector to ensure universal access to high-quality medical services, to improve the primary health care system and to decrease the financial risks to the population posed by high out-of-pocket expenditures on health. In April 2015, Georgia adopted its long-term strategy on hepatitis C for 2016–2020. The strategy includes actions to raise awareness about the disease, and programmes on disease surveillance, prevention, screening, diagnostics and treatment. Georgia also has a national health promotion strategy that includes tobacco control measures. In recent years, the country introduced new technologies for electronic data capture and exchange within several components of the health information system to improve case registration. It also established several new registries to provide better information about the existing burden of disease. In spite of the progress made in a number of indicators, however, some challenges remain in the areas of communicable and noncommunicable diseases, well-being and the social determinants of health (Gini coefficient and unemployment rates). v + 17 p. |
