Also all the  representatives from  eight countries were presenting specialization in family medicine and education from  their country. The first  was

1. D-r. Azijada Beganlikj  FBiH.

D-r. Azijada noted that among them specialization began in 1999. Were included educational centers in Sarajevo, Tuzla, Mostar-1998 and Zenica. There is also a conection  between centers as well as on the Queen University in Canada.

The final exam takes 6 hours. The large education began in 2002 where 2105 people completed educaion . 661 of them were doctors and 1444 were nurses

2. D-r Carmen Busneag – Romania

Specialization in family medicine in Romania began in 1990 year. They have  11,400 physicians in family medicine. Romanian Association of Family Medicine is a member of the WONCA also.

3. D-r. Biserka Bergman-Markovic

Croatia has 4 Medical unevirsities in Zagreb,Osiek, Rieka and Split. The same program for specialization in FM had medical university ofZagreb and M.U. in Rieka. Croatia has 2557 doctors, and  42% of them are specialists in FM. About 92% of the population is insured and 8% are not. To one doctor comes  1700 patients. Total number of doctors 76.1% concessionaires and 23.9% work in Healthcare facilities .There is a bad connection between them.  Consessionaires  besides capitation payment , are also payed  as well as they performed preventive serves.

Medical students have the 6 sun. Department of FM.

Specialization in SM started 1961 year but twelve years  were  without specialization in FM- political reasons. The specialization  is divided: 4m. aftergraduated work – 18 m. medical  work – 22 m. work chief mentor and mentor –  comentor in appointed health center.

(Portfolio test, OSCE, plowed egzam.)

Can not go to the exam if there is no portfolio.

What is most important is to have a good network mentors. Half  time working with mentor and half time with comentor. To become a Mentor  you must have more than 5 years of practice in family medicine.

4. D-r. Ruzica Nikikj – Republika Srpska.

Association of Family doctors was established in 1990 y.-says D-r. Ruzhica. It count 650 members and has 500 specialists in FM. Educational team consists  one doctor and two medical sisters. It has two departments of  FM: Banja Luka and Foca CES Saraevo. The final exam has taken before a three-member committee appointed by the Ministry of Health.

5. D-r Snezana Jankovic – Serbia

In Serbia there are 4 Medical Faculties in  Belgrade, Kragujevac, Nis and Novi Sad -said D-r. Snezhana. The Specialization  of  FM was introduced in 1963 y. and hadn’t have   ours  teaching persons.The Kathedra was established in 1979 y. From  2012 y. there is a new program for specialization in FM and it lasted 4 y. Practical part is not implemented. UC always work with the mentor. We have problem with HIF and MOH to implement specialization in FM as should .. But we have a well developed network mentors. We don’t have  Department of undergraduate teaching.

We expect to announce a contest that can compete teachers faculty. The final  examination is taken before a committee of 6 members sergion, gynecologist, internist, social medicine, prevention and general practitioner.

Serbia began the licensing process which raised the education process- noted D-r Snezana Jankovic.

6. D-r . Primoz Rus – Slovenia

Before  1999 y. the specialization in FM lasted 3 years , after that 4 y. pointed  D-r. Primozh.We have  three mentors:  1.major  academic 2.mentor 3.comentor.

We want to build a partnership between the doctor and patient and vice averse.

We have difficulty with motivation of young doctors to specialize FM. The graduated doctor in Slovenia must be a member of Doctors chamber to be able to specialize and can independently work after finishing his specialization in FM.

Each candidate needs to make genogram for patient and to connect with other services ,social service. Meanwhile every resident needs to make a project.

New is that trainees and students permanently evaluate our curriculum, and students and trainees permanently evaluated by the mentor.

Where leads all that? The path it is:

1. to communicate with patient

2. to communicate softer itself

3. not to levied more than necessary

4. to find our place in the system of health insurance

7. D-r. Mumtaz Mazicioglu – Turkey

Tahud is established  in1990, first center by FM open 1990 y.Education starts 2004 y.The first pilot center is from 1994 (Ankara, Bursa, Adana, Izmir).

8. D-r. Catharines Stavrikj – Macedonia

At year 2010 specialization in FM -the projekt, funded by the World Bank began 1999g. We made two projects for CME specialization and after FM. In 2007 passed Health Strategy up to 2020 y. we have to create the profile of  family doctor.

Dr. Hristo Dimitrov – EU works by stimulating young doctors to go and leave the country and stay to work just old doctors.

Dr. Biserka Bergman-Markovic – experience in Croatia last 3 years demonstrate that the students actively participate and when to increase the number of hours of work in practice, then the problems are smaller and less. In  Slovenia do not have problem. It should  actively employed the students. To give ourly  curricula to start earlier, in the first years of studying and rise authority FM.

Dr. Lyubomir Kirov – I think the fee of 150 euros is a lot and I do not know how colleagues from Bulgaria could come. Themes are  interesting for us ,but not for pharmaceutical houses.
