of living and labour conditions, maintenance and improvement of health of a
society and its member with a purpose to ensure harmonious development of human
physical and spiritual strengths, reaching the high level of work capacity and life

socio-economic development of the country. Health care is one of the main factors,
which form the economic security of the country.
Medical care belongs to the most important types of social services, directed
at addressing the basic needs of society. In accordance with Ukrainian law, each
member of a society, regardless of the income level, has an equal access to the
health care, and financial policy in healthcare field should provide a warranty of its
high quality. And although the health status depends of the way of life, environment
and heredity for 90 per cent, and only for 10 per cent on the development level of
healthcare system, nevertheless, inadequate financing of this branch is one of the
factors of low rates of its development. Thus, search of the new financial resources
