Abstract:
The health care system of the country is in the conditions of constant transformational changes. The health of the citizens along with the standard of living is one of the criteria for determining the development of the state. Also, it determines the state’s preparation for being included in the processes of globalization as an equal participant. Unfortunately, in Ukraine, there was a system that had a number of defects for a long time. Financial and personnel shortages were accompanied by a lack of focus on the final result. This led to the fact that even with the availability of funds it was not possible to spend them rationally. As well as the loss of truly qualified professionals despite their availability, due to the lack of motivation for quality work. Improving the quality and efficiency of the health care system is recognized as one of the best investments, since healthy citizens and a healthy society, in general, are more prone to economic growth. In general, much has been d
one to reform the health care system, but this is just the beginning. There is still a lot of work to be done, both on the part of regulatory managers in this area and ordinary health professionals, who will implement the adopted programs and contact patients directly.
