However, there is an overall dissatisfaction with the health system's performance, namely a deteriorated health status, declining birth rates, and increased death rates. There is inadequate prevention, and treatment of cardiovascular disease, including that for renewed epidemics of communicable diseases, i.e., tuberculosis, HIV/AIDS, and sexually transmitted infections, and, further concerns include the inappropriate allocation of the percentage of GDP to health care. Such performance arise from the absence of clinical protocols, and treatment methods which do not reflect effective approaches to medical care and disease prevention; from an unbalanced health care delivery; inadequate health facilities, and management systems; and, the inefficient allocation of health resources. A sustained, and wide-ranging process of gradual, planned improvements in the health care system should include fostering disease prevention, while promoting clinical practices with good medical assistance, reorganizing the system of health infrastructure into a diverse network of accredited facilities, with defined roles, commensurate technology, and accountability for clinical excellence, and effective use of resources. Other changes call for the realignment of professional, and financial incentives for health providers, and consumers, for professional training opportunities, and, by restructuring incentives.Publication Review of Experience of Family Medicine in Europe and Central Asia, Volume 2, Armenia Case Study(Washington, DC, 2005-05)This report summarizes the findings of four case studies that review the experience of family medicine in Europe and Central Asia (ECA) Region.
