Aim: It was analyzed whether the parent's view in regions distant to medical care (dtmc) versus close to medical care (ctmc) is different regarding (1) the assessment of situation in pediatric care and (2) the attitude of parents to delegate medical tasks to qualified members of non-medical health professions. Method: A self-developed questionnaire was sent to parents in kindergartens, who are either nearby (=close to the medical care provider, ctmc) or more than 20 km away from the nearest pediatric practice and a pediatrics department (=distant to the medical care provider, dtmc). Socio-demographic, pediatric-care-related aspects and attitudes to delegation of defined medical tasks to non-medical health professionals were asked. Results: Of the n=407 evaluable questionnaires (response rate: 18%), 49% came from parents in ctmc-kindergartens and 51% from parents in dtmc-kindergartens. Significant differences were found in the number of children living in the household (ctmc: 21% with 3 or more children vs. dtmc:13%; p-value 0.044), years of education of parents (ctmc: 50% had more than 10 years vs. dtmc: 39%; p-value 0.026), the number of doctor visits (ctmc: 50% presented her child in the last 12 month four times or more to a doctor vs. dtmc: 32%; p-value <0.001) and the kind of medical doctor was in dtmc in 51% a pediatrician vs. ctmc: 87%; p-value <0.001). The distance to the doctor was significant different (p-value <0.001) and parents in dtmc-kindergartens perceived ...
