Methodology for forming a model of a regional center of cardiology on the principles of public-private partnership

Annotation. International experience proves the effectiveness of using public-private partnership (PPP) projects in the healthcare sector. The aim of the work was to substantiate the methodology of forming a model of a regional center of cardiology (RCC) on the principles of PPP. The study used general scientific methods of analysis, synthesis, interpretation of scientific data, systemic and structural-functional approaches, as well as the generalized results of a sociological survey of 829 patients who applied to district cardiology offices in the Kyiv region, as well as 352 cardiologists from all regions of Ukraine. The analysis of the prevalence of diseases of the circulatory system (DCS) and resource provision of the cardiological service in the Kyiv region was carried out on the basis of data from the Kyiv regional center of medical statistics. It has been established that an unfavorable epidemiological situation in terms of morbidity, disability and mortality due to DCS has formed in the Kyiv region and there are a number of problems in the organization of cardiac care for the population of the region. To improve the organization of cardiac care at the regional level, a modern model of a regional cardiology center based on PPP principles is needed, which can ensure the economic, structural and social efficiency of medical care. To implement the project of organizing a regional cardiology center on the principles of PPP, an applied methodology has been developed, which is a set of interrelated methodological approaches, requirements and regulators and a methodological tool for the formation of a modern RCC model with the involvement of private capital, market mechanisms that provide a targeted impact on the effectiveness of the model. The proposed methodology will be further used to substantiate and develop a modern RCC model based on PPP principles.
