Abstract

The aim of this work was to analyze the market of drugs purchased by the State-financed Institution of Healthcare "Orenburg regional Clinical Psychiatric Hospital № 1". The objects of the research were operational and statistical reports of the specialized in- stitution and data of the public procurement portal. We used systemic, logical and marketing analysis techniques.Budget financing of the institution for medicines was not the same and significantly changed in the period of 2013-2016. In2014, there was a dynamic increase in funding by 216% compared to 2013, but in the period from 2015 to 2016, there was a sys- tematic decrease in funding to the level of 2013. A large share of the budget for medicines was spent on the purchase of neurolep- tics, namely in 2013 - 84% of the total funding in 2014, 2015 and 2016 - 98%.The average price for the most popular neuroleptics for the period of 2013-2016 remained unchanged or increased insignificant- ly, at the level of average annual inflation in Russia. The institution managed to maintain the quality of specialized psychiatric care for patients with schizophrenia.
