Abstract

This study aimed to justify the mechanisms for improving the administration system of local health care facilities based on the best European experience. This study determined the state of health care facilities in Ukraine based on assessing the quality of medical services, rational resources usage, personnel management, and technical and technological improvement. Systematization of scientific sources and approaches to solving investigated issues showed methodological underdevelopment and methodological lack of administration systems of Ukrainian health care facilities at the local level, considering the specifics of medical services. Thus, healthcare institutions need to adapt, develop, and implement the best international practices in administrative technologies. For gaining the research goal, the study was carried out in the following logical sequence: 1) analyzing the current models of health care development processes in the world; 2) determining the features of administration system od the health care institutions; 3) developing recommendations for improving the administration system of local health care facilities in Ukraine. The methodological tool of this research is the systematization of information based on the content analysis of official websites. The research object is the administration system of health care facilities in Ukraine. In the study, the authors present several approaches to organize state administration of health care at the national and regional levels. The authors determined the effective tools for administering health care institutions. The study substantiated the strategic format of developing health care facilities in modern conditions by providing high-quality services, rational resources usage, personnel management, and technical and technological improvement.

Summary

Introduction

The necessity of improving the management of health care development processes in Ukraine has resulted in the growing scientific interest of domestic researchers to substantiate its effective forms and methods. Analysis of modern foreign experience could facilitate in solving this problem. The findings allow assessing the applied approaches to the organization of public health management at the national and regional levels, selecting productive tools suitable for use in the health care facilities management in Ukraine. Methodological underdevelopment and methodological neediness of health care management in Ukraine, considering the specifics of healthcare services delivery, challenge health care institutions to adapt, develop, and comprehensively implement management technologies that have proven themselves well in foreign countries.
