Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the coupling coordination degree between the medical service capability and financial management level of compact county-level medical consortium in Guangdong,analyze regional disparities and influencing factors,and provide policy recommendations for the high-quality development of county-level medical communities.Methods:By using questionnaire survey,sampling survey and coupling coordination model,the evaluation index system of medical service ability and financial management level of 91 compact county-level medical consortia in Guangdong was constructed,and the coupling coordination degree was calculated to evaluate the collaborative development.Results:It is found that the coupling coordination degree of county medical communities in Guangdong during the period of 2019-2023 shows an overall upward trend,and the coordination level of financial unified medical communities is significantly better than that of financial partitioned medical communities,with a higher degree of coordination in the Pearl River Delta Region,and a relatively lower degree of coordination in the western part of Guangdong;some of the medical communities have the problem of lagging healthcare service capacity or financial management level,and the development of inter-regional and inter-type phenomenon of imbalance between regions and types is more prominent.Conclusion:Compact county-level medical consortium implementing unified financial management can effectively enhance the synergistic efficiency of medical services and financial management through unified management and resource sharing.Future efforts should focus on strengthening financial support,advancing information technology construction,and promoting regional balanced development to further improve the overall synergistic level of county-level medical communities and drive the high-quality development of county-level medical and health services.
