Background

By analyzing 23 evaluation indicators included in 14 national basic public health service programs in a region of Hohhot City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China, the performance of basic public health services in the region in 2021 were analyzed to clarify the implementation and conduct of relevant programs. We also use this study as a basis to radiate the work of municipal basic public health services centered on the region and the outstanding problems reflected and to provide theoretical contents and suggestions that can be referred to for the same regions in central and western China as well as worldwide.

Methods

Using the TOPSIS method as the basis for the data analysis method, the evaluation indexes are ranked in terms of their proximity to the idealized target, and combined with the entropy value method, Technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) and rank-sum ratio (RSR) were used to rank 14 basic health care providers by grade. A comprehensive evaluation of the performance of basic public health services in a region of Hohhot City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region in 2021 was conducted through a joint model of entropy -weighted TOPSIS and RSR, making full use of the characteristics and advantages of the fuzzy joint, and conducting a comprehensive analysis from the perspective of the ratio weight and the method of graded calculation, making the study more distinguishable and measureable.

Results

In this study, for the regional basic public health services, a total of 23 evaluation indicators of basic public health service projects were included, among which the top three indicators with the weight of the entropy value method indicators were found to include the rate of Chinese medicine health management for the elderly, the rate of health management for the elderly, and the BCG vaccination rate after the analysis of the weight of the indicators; After the entropy-weighted TOPSIS evaluation showed that the Ci values of the regions were found to be between 0.378 and 0.715 through the calculation of the positive and negative ideal values of each indicator; RSR staging method evaluation showed that three community health centers (X2, X10, X12) had excellent evaluations of basic public health services; The number of evaluations as poor and moderate are 2 (X3, X9) and 9 (X1, X4, X5, X6, X7, X8, X11, X13, X14), respectively; Finally, the results of the entropy-weighted TOPSIS method and the fuzzy joint model of RSR staging method are basically consistent with the overall trend of the above two methods, and the reliability and credibility of the research results are high.

Conclusion

The entropy-weighted TOPSIS and RSR joint model can evaluate the effectiveness of basic public health services in a more comprehensive and holistic way. The results of the RSR staging results and the related weight ratio analysis show that the basic public health service programs in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region are relatively balanced, but there are some differences; The same genus of elderly Chinese medicine health management rate, health management rate of the elderly, BCG vaccination rate several indicators accounted for a higher weight, its correlation with the key population-related items is high, suggesting that the future key population health service items should be focused on, and future research should be suggested from two key research.
