OBJECTIVES: Specialized home care was introduced in primary care in Hungary in 1996. The aim of our study was to investigate the number of rounds completed in specialized home care and their distribution between nursing and physiotherapy services. METHODS: The data come from the database of the National Health Fund, through the Central Statistics Office, being the only health financing agency in Hungary. We analyzed the number of home care visits and its distribution among specialized care and physiotherapy services. RESULTS: The number of specialized home care visits accounted for values between 1106396 and 1310093 in the period of 2010-2014. The rate of completed visits amounted to 60% regarding specialized care and 40 % to physiotherapy services. Within physiotherapy services, physiotherapy showed the highest incidence with the number of visits between 390092 and 483654. This represents approximately 85% frequency each year opposite to electrotherapy and speech therapy. CONCLUSIONS: The issue of specialized home care is inevitable in the health care system in our country. Its demand is constantly increasing. The number of physiotherapy rounds gives reason to reconsider financing and requires more support for the elaboration of physiotherapy services.
