Legal mechanisms for the development of public-private partnership in healthcare

Abstract

The article highlights the innovative transformations that have taken place in Ukraine over the past two years within the framework of legislative processes aimed at ensuring effective public management of public-private partnerships (PPPs) in the healthcare sector. In the context of modern challenges, in particular, a full-scale war, the importance of cooperation between public and private organizations has increased significantly. This cooperation contributes to strengthening the infrastructure and ensuring access to quality medical services even in times of crisis. In this context, the emphasis is placed on the latest legal innovations in Ukraine that form the basis for the effective functioning of PPPs in the healthcare sector.
The article examines the evolution of contractual structures that have become more adaptive to modern realities, in particular through the integration of risk management strategies and the implementation of models based on achieving results. Considerable attention is paid to transparency and accountability as key elements of the successful functioning of PPPs. An important aspect is also the involvement of stakeholders, including representatives of the public, the medical community and investors, which ensures a balance of interests and contributes to the long-term sustainability of projects.
The analysis of legal mechanisms for adapting to the challenges of the healthcare sector showed how new approaches help overcome problems such as the restoration of destroyed infrastructure, the lack of qualified personnel, the protection of data confidentiality, patients’ rights and compliance with ethical standards. Special emphasis is placed on international comparative studies that allow adopting best practices and integrating them into the national legal field.
The review of innovative development of the legal mechanism for ensuring PPP includes an analysis of legislative reforms, risk management strategies, adaptation of the regulatory framework, implementation of new contract models, ensuring transparency, compliance with ethical standards and integration of international experience. Such transformations form a dynamic legal environment that stimulates the development of public-private partnerships, creating the foundation for building a healthcare system that is patient-oriented and sensitive to the challenges of modernity.
