ABSTRACT

In the research, modern models of the health care financing are studied, and features and drivers of their digitalization are determined. The state funding system is based on budget guarantees for medical care and institutional regulation. The private market financing model operates under the conditions of the market of medical services and insurance, private financing and regulation of business processes. The socially-oriented model of the health care financing combines compulsory health insurance with a state guarantee of the level of medical services. The aim of the study is to substantiate the directions of improving the system of financial support for digital development of health care. The author proposes to use digititalization drivers for each model, which will optimize information and financial flows. In accordance with the sequence of implementation of the medical reform in the domestic health care system, the following changes have been introduced: funding is implemented on the principle of "money follows the patient"; electronic systems for communication and information analysis were formed; new regulatory institutions were created for the distribution of financial flows and the implementation of the public policy; there was a reform of primary medicine; new systems of distribution and financing of medical devices, control over their circulation have been formed. Also, the achievements of the medical reform include a large-scale campaign to declare patients and assign them to primary care physicians, concluding agreements with privately owned medical institutions, which allows liberalizing the medical services market. Research trends in the health care financing reflect the growing volume of targeted disbursement of funds in accordance with the volume of declaration and provision of medical services. During the period of the health care reform in Ukraine, unified digital platforms and technologies for communication between state fund managers and medical institutions, and the latter with doctors and patients, have already been introduced.
