Изучение и оценка барьеров и ограничений для развития медицинского туризма в Исфахане, как одного из туристических направлений Ирана, использующего подход интегрированного предоставления услуг, является целью настоящего исследования.Материал и методы. Экспериментальное исследование было проведено с использованием качественного и количественного смешанного метода. Анализ данных в качественном методе проводился с использованием программного обеспечения MAXQDA-18, в то время как в количественном методе использовалась комбинация метода стратегического планирования SWOT и многокритериального принятия решений.Результаты. Многочисленные недостатки и проблемы были классифицированы с использованием системы индексов, разработанных по различным параметрам, включая качество медицинских услуг и учреждений, доступ к медицинской и туристической информации, инфраструктуру и правила, коммуникации и маркетинг, факторы окружающей среды, процедуры лечения, обеспечение медицинской безопасности и международные барьеры. Между тем, роль каждого из этих измерений и подиндексов в препятствии развитию медицинского туризма в регионе была оценена путем изучения связи между различными измерениями, способствующими развитию медицинского туризма в Исфахане.Выводы. Для устранения выявленных барьеров было предложено несколько стратегий, включая предоставление комплексных медицинских услуг (медицинских, лечебных и оздоровительных), разработку совместных продуктов секторами, участвующими в этой области, составление комплексного плана развития оздоровительного туризма, подготовку согласованного и организованного в научном плане с учетом политики устойчивой экономики, реалистичного и практического внимания к вопросам брендинга, использования современных методов маркетингового плана для медицинских компаний и фасилитаторов, устранения правовых барьеров для развития медицинского туризма и составления новой политики поддержки, надзора и рекламы.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Aim. The intention of the present research has been to examine and evaluate the barriers and limitations to the development of medical tourism in Isfahan as one of Iran’s tourism destinations by taking the approach of service integration.Materials and Methods. This exploratory research was conducted using mixed qualitative and quantitative methodology. Data analysis by the qualitative method was done using MAXQDA-18 software, while by the quantitative method a combination of SWOT strategic planning technique and multi-criteria decision making was usedResults. Multiple weaknesses and challenges were classified by using a framework of indexes developed on different dimensions including: quality of medical services and facilities; access to medical and tourism information; infrastructures and regulations; communications and marketing; environmental factors; treatment procedures and passive defense and international barriers. Meanwhile, the role of each of these dimensions and sub-indexes in impeding medical tourism development in the region was evaluated by examining the association between the various dimensions contributing to medical tourism development in Isfahan.Conclusions. To remove the barriers identified, several strategies are proposed. including the provision of health-based integrated services (medical, treatment and wellness), development of shared products by the sectors involved in this domain, compilation of a comprehensive plan for health tourism development, preparation of a coherent and well-organized scientific plan given the policies of resilient economy, realistic and practical attention to the branding issues, the usage of up-to-date methods of modern marketing plan for the health companies and facilitators, removal of the legal barriers to the medical tourism development and compilation of new supportive, supervisory and advertising policies.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Медицинский туризм</kwd><kwd>интеграция услуг</kwd><kwd>конкурентоспособность назначения</kwd><kwd>оценка барьеров</kwd><kwd>обобщение перспектив</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Medical tourism</kwd><kwd>service integration</kwd><kwd>destination competitiveness</kwd><kwd>evaluation of barriers</kwd><kwd>compilation of perspectives</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="ru">Исследование было проведено при содействии Фонда поддержки исследователей и технологов Исламской Республики Иран в рамках исследовательского проекта № 97001934 «Планирование землепользования и стратегии расширения деревень здоровья с учетом подхода к развитию медицинского туризма в Иране».
