Abstract

To Develop classification of legal acts regulating the activities of hospital pharmacies and identify significant problems in them for drug provision enhancement in health facilities. Methods The main regulatory framework governing the hospital pharmacies activities was carried out using the computer help system "Con- sultant Plus" and Internet search engines Google and Yandex. The first group (group No. 1) includes terms that affect the actual subject of the study – hospital pharmacy and synonyms. The second group of words used (group No. 2) is common terms of hospital pharmacy activities and drug supply in the health facilities. Results We developed classification of regulatory legal acts that regulate the work of hospital pharmacies by the method of regulation (regulating directly and indirectly) and by content (regulating general aspects and applied aspects of drug provision in the health facility. Regulations governing general aspects, the definition of the hospital pharmacy as a pharmacy organization, the classifi- cation of pharmacy organizations, the status of a hospital pharmacy, the list of goods provided by a hospital pharmacy, as well as pharmaceutical works performed. Legal acts regulating applied aspects include groups of documents regulating the main process- es (drug supply) and regulating the supporting processes (personnel policy, provision of material and technical resources). Conclusion We identified non-regulated stages of drug supply specific for health facilities. In connection with the abolition of Soviet period legal acts important issues, personal and material and technical resources, were excluded from the legal framework, which was not compensated by the emergence of relevant legal acts. To date, a systematic approach has not been developed in the legal regula- tion of the hospital pharmacy, there is no continuity of legal acts and uniformity of terminology.
