Summary

Health Care is one of the most important areas in the field of service that should always remain in the forefront of the state's primary interests. Because the health of the population is the most valuable economic resource and since its defense is the primary task and the basis of state policy, the health care system funding should be a priority for the state. Today, three different forms of arrangement of health care sector are allocated:

1. State system (Great Britain, Greece, Denmark, Ireland, Italy, Sweden, Portugal, Norway and others);

2. Insurance system (Germany, France, Holland, Austria, Belgium, Switzerland, Japan and others);

3. Private (Paid) System (USA).

In our country today is functioning so-called Insurance system. Since 2013, universal health care program has been launched in Georgia. According to the official information, 2 882 238 citizens were insured within 2 years of the universal healthcare program, and 358 166 527 GEL was allocated from the state budget.

Various innovative mechanisms for the efficient functioning of the health system are widely introduced in the modern world. In this regard, it is particularly interesting to see the world experience of the "state-private partnership" model in the healthcare sector.

In healthcare the state and private business partnership is their cooperation in implementing priority targets for healthcare development, through the distribution of benefits, costs and risks between each other with regard to long-term and most importantly, voluntary principles and inadequate funding in the health care system.

This model is especially important for a low-income country like Georgia where there is insufficient funding for the health sector and where the economic efficiency of state medical institutions is mainly low.
