In September 2015, the State Council of China issued guidelines on building a hierarchical medical system, stating that the first visit rate to primary healthcare (PHC) facilities should be increased to 70% for all medical facilities by 2017. This meta-analysis aims to estimate the willingness of the first visit to PHC services in China after the year 2015 and identify its determinants.
A meta-analysis was conducted.
The combined estimate from 23 studies in China for the willingness rate of the first visit to PHC services was 56% (95% CI: 47-65). Chronic diseases may be one source of heterogeneity. We identified five main associated factors with the pooled odds ratio ranging from 1.39 to 10.28, including fair self-reported health status; high understanding of service content; good service attitude; solid expertise and advanced diagnostic methods; and a good medical environment.
In comparison with China's State Council recommendations, the willingness rate for the first visit to PHC services was significantly lower. The Government should develop strategies to facilitate the implementation of a hierarchical system for diagnosis and treatment.
2015年9月,中国国务院发布了关于建立分级医疗体系的指导方针,提出到2017年所有医疗机构的基层医疗卫生机构首诊率应提高到70%。本荟萃分析旨在评估2015年后中国居民基层医疗卫生机构首诊意愿并确定其影响因素。
进行了一项荟萃分析。
中国23项研究对基层医疗卫生机构首诊意愿率的合并估计为56%(95%CI:47-65)。慢性病可能是异质性的一个来源。我们确定了五个主要相关因素,合并比值比在1.39至10.28之间,包括自我报告健康状况良好;对服务内容了解程度高;服务态度好;专业技术扎实、诊断方法先进;以及医疗环境良好。
与中国国务院的建议相比,基层医疗卫生机构首诊意愿率显著较低。政府应制定策略以促进分级诊疗制度的实施。
