A new look at PPP in health protection: perspectives of interaction between the state and hospitals of Ukraine

Abstract

In the context of modern challenges facing the healthcare system of Ukraine, in particular the limitation of financial resources, and the need to modernize the infrastructure and improve the quality of medical services, public-private partnership (PPP) emerges as a strategic tool that offers new opportunities for solving these problems. The relevance of this study lies in the in-depth analysis of the potential of PPPs in the field of health care in Ukraine, with an emphasis on the identification of key success factors, challenges, and barriers that accompany the implementation of such projects. Given the growing need for investment to improve health infrastructure and services, as well as the need to introduce innovative approaches to healthcare delivery, PPP research is becoming increasingly important. It makes it possible to identify mechanisms through which effective interaction between public authorities and the private sector is possible, which, in turn, contributes to the achievement of strategic goals in the field of health care. This study is aimed at revealing the possibilities of PPPs to improve the availability and quality of medical services, analyzes international experience, and outlines recommendations for the adaptation of best practices in the context of the Ukrainian healthcare system. The results of the study are intended to contribute to the development of effective policies and strategies for the implementation of PPPs, which will become the basis for the sustainable development of health care in Ukraine, improving the quality of medical care and providing the population with affordable and high-quality medical services.
