Abstract:
Objective:To survey the status quo of family doctor work mode in Shanghai Xuhui district.Methods:Semi-structured and structured in-depth interviews were conducted in Shanghai Xuhui district from April to June 2021, 11 directors, 12 deputy directors in charge and 30 family doctors from 12 community health service centers participated in the survey and completed two stages and four sessions of interviews on the development of the integrated and high-quality family doctor work mode and the ways to realize and the challenges to face. The records of interviews were transcribed, sorted and analyzed using the Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:The survey showed that the family doctor contracting was carried out in a large team mode in the whole district, mainly for the elderly, and most of contracted residents were not included in health management and follow-up services. The team was composed of family doctors and assistants, and the routine outpatient service was the main work pattern, and the regular services also included the chronic disease follow-up and health check-up for elderly. On the issue of how to output high-quality integrated services, the majority of doctors (12/13) believed that the contracted individual should be taken as the unit of fine service, carrying out overall health assessment, optimizing medication plan, lifestyle guidance, one-stop service in hospital, etc.; only one doctor suggested that the family should be the management unit. For upgrading the working mode and service quality, insufficient time and energy were the main obstacle. Public health work occupied a lot of working time, but it seemed not be transformed into favorable resources and conveniences in health management and services. The professional assistants should carry out some responsibility to save family doctor′s time. The survey suggests that informatization, service space, and sufficient drug supply are the keys for ensuring high-quality and high-efficiency integrated services.Conclusion:The organizational structure of the family doctor team in Shanghai Xuhui district is relatively mature, but the integrated and high-quality service output has not yet reached. It is necessary to make regional overall planning and increase efforts to achieve the integration of medical treatment and prevention, so as to gain time for family doctors to carry out high-quality services. At the same time, it is also necessary to cultivate effective family doctor assistants, provide an information work platform that matches the work attributes and goals of family doctors, open up an integrated health management service space, and ensure the full range supply of drugs.
