Abstract

Purpose: to study evaluation features, analysis and planning social programs which used in public health and development ways to improve them.

Materials and Methods. In the process of research the general scientific methods of research were used: historical, method of comparative analysis, and statistical groupings.

Results. Public health policy is formed by building a system that is a set of tools, procedures and measures implemented by governmental and non-governmental institutions to promote public health, prevent disease, prolong active and working age, promote a healthy lifestyle through united efforts of the whole society.

Social programs in this area are designed to implement these tools at the state and regional levels.

The formation of social programs in public health is largely unsystematic –there are no generally accepted standards of public social reporting. In this regard, the urgency of studying the basics of social programs, as well as practical mechanisms, their implementation in accordance with modern requirements is growing.

The current state of social programs in public health research  has shown the presence of a number of theoretical, methodological, economic, organizational, legal problems.

Evidence suggests that investing in public health is generally cost-effective for the health care sector, other sectors, and the economy in a broad sense, with a fourfold return on every US dollar invested.

A clear position of the state is important for the further development of social programs in public health. The state created the basic conditions for the development of such programs and these conditions were important for the initial stage of their formation. Today they are not enough.

Conclusions. The state should create a regulation system of such programs, which will reflect not only tax benefits, but also other preferences for developers of such programs. Particular attention should be paid to overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic, which has made significant changes in a number of chronic and acute diseases.
