Abstract:
Objective To understand the situation of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) characteristic services in public TCM hospitals,and to provide reference and basis for hospitals to give full play to the advantages of TCM characteristics.Methods Taking the survey data of the 2022 National Comprehensive Statistical System of TCM as the main assessment content,the entropy weight TOPSIS method was used to analyse the situation of TCM characteristic services in TCM hospitals nationwide through five TCM characteristic indicators of outpatient services and four TCM characteristic indicators of inpatient services.Results (1) In outpatient services,"the proportion of outpatients using non-pharmacological TCM"has the greatest weight (20.40％);in inpatient services,"the proportion of patients discharged with TCM as the main treatment"has the greatest weight (20.13％).(2) The highest score of TCM specialty service index of TCM hospitals is 0.854,and the lowest score is 0.035;the capability of TCM specialty service in Southwest,Central South and East China is relatively stronger;the Ci values of provincial-level,municipal-level,and county-level TCM hospitals and the following hospitals are 0.497,0.487,and 0.423 respectively,and that of the tertiary-level and secondary-level TCM hospitals are 0.495 and 0.416.(3) The TCM specialty service indexes of tertiary specialized TCM hospitals,tertiary ethnomedicine hospitals,and tertiary general TCM hospitals are higher,at 0.549,0.508,and 0.496 respectively.Conclusion The overall performance of TCM hospitals nationwide in TCM speciality services is fair,but there are differences between regions,hospital levels and hospital types.
