But while funds are allocated per capita, spending rules are strictly input-based
Facilities face a schizophrenic situation where they need to reconcile imposed norms with fiscal reality

HEALTH CARE STRATEGY
![Page 15: HEALTH CARE REFORM IN UKRAINE SAG ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITY](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649da35503460f94a8fccd/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Strategic principles of reforming• Consumers’ freedom of choice should become the driving force of
reform;
• The Government's financial obligations regarding healthcare should be in compliance with the country's ongoing economic capacity and budgetary resources and limited to policy development, control and surveillance functions;
• Health care delivery sector, including pharmaceutical and insurance sectors, should be set free from bureaucratic overregulation, to enable private investments into the system, as well as increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the public spending.
![Page 16: HEALTH CARE REFORM IN UKRAINE SAG ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITY](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649da35503460f94a8fccd/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Goal• To transform health system to ensure improving the
efficiency and effectiveness of the system and establishing consumer’s right to equal access to affordable, quality public health services.
• However, the vital requirement of the reform success is that the transition from an old to a new system should be as smooth, manageable and in line with other government's economic recovery initiatives as possible.

Health System Values • People-centred

![Page 18: HEALTH CARE REFORM IN UKRAINE SAG ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITY](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/56649da35503460f94a8fccd/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Health system principles• Comprehensiveness - establishment of a single medical space
with a clear defenition of roles and responsibilities at all levels• Continuity - the development and support of primary health
care, which provides medical care throughout the life• Subsidiarity - solving health problems at the lowest possible
level of health care• Accessibility - the geographical location of health facilities that
ensures equal opportunities for citizens to access services, regardless of education level, economic status, religious beliefs or other personal and social circumstances
• Humanity - provided through respect to the patient as a person who has the right to physical and mental integrity and protection of the identity, including respect for the private life, philosophy, moral and religious beliefs

Service provision• Providers of all organizational forms and ownership should
have an opportunity to freely enter the market and compete "on a levelled playing field", on equal footing for public funding, as long as they meet due requirement of safety and quality.
• multi-shaped network of public and private health care facilities should be established based on the follow principles • the cycle of the disease (preventive, therapeutic, rehabilitative...); • the technology involved (surgical, lab, imaging); • the intensity of the process of care (routine, intensive, emergency care); • the main target recipient (paediatric, females, geriatric, etc.)
• Service providing networks, corporations will be established, with their own managerial autonomy
• Health Care Management should be introduced

Primary care• a balanced system of primary care will take years to establish• doctors should care for several patients -individuals and families-
related to each other, who live and/or work in close proximity and whose lives are interrelated
• promoting general practitioners as privately operated businesses / private entrepreneurs
• the exclusive right of the PHC doctors to refer patients to specialists ("gatekeeping")
• Hybrid payments could be approached using mix formula with • risk-adjusted capitation, • fee for service • pay for performance and quality
• Law on Medical Services in 2015

Hospital Care• The number and the structure of hospitals in Ukraine needs to be urgently
optimized• Specialized, single profile institutions could be transformed into multi-
functional medical centres• Three levels of care provision – local hospitals, regional hospitals and
central referral hospitals - could be proposed for the network• "Parallel health systems" will be abolished • sub-national Hospital Master Plans will document the existing resources
and needs and provide suggestions for network optimization• Image and diagnostic services, or non-medical services (food, laundry,
etc.) are natural candidate in terms of PPPs• NGOs could be used for leading some services , although this would
probably require social debate
• Law on Medical Institution – 2015

Global budget FFS PPTP DRG

• If the government will be leaning towards a full privatization decision, there are several possibilities or their different combinations: • Selling medical facilities through public auction; • Employees could become the owners of facilities through direct
sale for a symbolic price; • Various non-governmental charitable organizations, including
religious organizations could become the owners of facilities through direct sale for a symbolic price;
• And finally local authorities could become the owners of some of them too.
