The rating parameters determined by logical methodological deduction procedure. included reflect in balanced way socio-economic demographic status region, readiness healthcare system, development prevention, treatment diagnostic work relation NCDs. Results discussion For first time, compiled out aspect combating NCDs; corresponding needs, opportunities region were objectively characterized, which basis planning management decisions. Based on benchmarking, an original tool strategic has been developed - matrix prevailing influence typical barriers NCDs Conclusions developed, serves as measures.
