Purpose: to highlight the concept of public health system and public health services in Ukraine.
Materials and Methods. Scientific methods of analysis, synthesis and generalization were used in order to achieve this goal.
Results. Considering in detail the functioning of public health institutions in Ukraine at the national and regional levels, we can note that to ensure the epidemiological surveillance and assessment of health and well-being of the population modern new tools were created. These tools have been used to monitor public health. The basic standards of activity and priorities are used. There are new structures, such as a clear reporting system, financing, monitoring of the quality of labor resources and rendering of services to consumers.
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. 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. It is a need for creation 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 overcome the COVID-19 pandemic, which has made significant changes to the number of chronic and acute diseases and to the public health system.
Conclusions. The adoption of the Concept for the Development of the Public Health System in Ukraine in 2016 was a driving stage in the modernization of public health in Ukraine and had a positive impact on its development. There are still problems with the need to improve the further development and modernization of the public health system in Ukraine, which ought to be addressed at the national and regional levels, taking into account the international experience of the highly efficient systems in Europe and the World.
