Abstract:

The article considers possibilities of the regional health care assessment by means of creating its socio-cultural portrait. We suggest to carry out the assessment with the use of the developed methodological bases of a comprehensive regional research. The paper puts forth assessment criteria and specifies sources of information. A large difficulty in assessing the quality of the state health care management is noted as a problematic and a poorly explored issue. As evaluation tools, we suggest the use of the classic general content analysis of mass media and regional legal acts, as well as a more extensive use of social studies.
