The development of pediatric oncology-hematology in the Russian Federation: the experience of collaboration between the National Society of Pediatric Hematologists and Oncologists and the National Medical Research Center

The basis for constructing a vertically integrated management system in the healthcare sector in the Russian Federation is the model of functioning of national centers. One of the key components in achieving success is the interaction of the national center with a leading national society. The aim of the article is to present the experience of joint work of the National Society of Pediatric Hematologists and Oncologists (NSPHO) with the Dmitry Rogachev National Medical Research Center of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology in the field of development of pediatric oncology-hematology in the Russian Federation. In order to accomplish the task of building a system for organizing medical care for children in pediatric oncology-hematology, a comprehensive development program was implemented, which included collecting data on the structure of the service through questionnaires in the regions, obtaining expert opinion and the subsequent creation of a service passport using data visualization. In addition, the experience of creating professional standards and the concept of a unified approach in the field of training in the specialties “Pediatric Oncology” and “Hematology” using the technology of continuing medical education are reflected. The result of the work was the formation of a single plan for the organization of the service of pediatric oncology-hematology, developed by the NSPHO in conjunction with the Dmitry Rogachev National Medical Research Center of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology with the support of the National Medical House and under the leadership of the Ministry of Health of Russia.
