The article analyzes issues related to one of the types of Internet technologies in the field of health care, electronic health care system (e-Health) in Ukraine, components and mechanism of its implementation. Information rights, the right to access the Internet and the use of innovative technologies in medicine have traditionally been referred to as the "fourth generation of human rights", the emergence of which is due to the realities of the XXI century. The medical reform introduced in Ukraine has focused on the patient in the field of health care. The purpose was to bring medical services closer to the patient, simplify the procedure for their provision (use of telemedicine), "material interest" of doctors in providing services (payment for each patient), which should improve the quality and availability of relevant services. The concept and content of the electronic health care system as an integral part of health care reform are analyzed. The purpose of which is to assist in establishing a relationship between doctor and patient regarding the proper quality of available (receiving) medical services. The functional capabilities of e-Health, positive aspects and certain "weaknesses" in the mechanism of its implementation are identified. Some components of the e-Health implementation mechanism are considered, which are: introduction of an electronic form of declarations between patients and family doctors, therapists, pediatricians; translation into electronic form of prescriptions under the program "Available Medicines"; introduction of electronic referrals, which is a part of the program "Free diagnostics"; introduction of electronic hospitals; creation of an electronic patient cabinet.

The aim to provide valid, relevant, permanent, timely information to all health care institutions, as well as citizens of Ukraine in the framework of public health management processes for quality medical care. Sociological method - allows you to study the social structure and its impact on health. Systems analysis as a scientific method of cognition, which makes it possible to establish structural connections between system elements. Medical information system is a type of information system that differs in a set of methodological techniques, techniques and management algorithms designed to collect, store, process and transmit information in health care facilities. An single information system ensures the provision of reliable information in the right amount, in the right place, at the right time for members of the health care system. One of the important factors in the implementation of health care reform is the electronic health care system (E-Health). E-Health consists of two interconnected parts, one of which - the central database - will be controlled by the state. Institutions will have access to it through the second part, which is called privately developed medical information systems. The National Health Service of Ukraine ensures the functioning of the electronic health care system and awebsite containing information on the electronic health care system. Health care informatization today is an integral, perhaps the main, component of any health care reform in today’s world. Creating a single information space has many advantages.

The article is devoted to the issues of informatization of health care in the context of medical reform in Ukraine. It was emphasized that the service component of health care reform should open free access to information for patients, in connection with which the eHealth system (electronic health care system) is being introduced in Ukraine. eHealth provides the exchange of medical information and the implementation of the program of medical guarantees of the population. It is substantiated that in order to effectively implement the state information policy in the medical field it is necessary to develop and adopt a legal act at the level of law, for example, the Law of Ukraine “On the functioning of the electronic health care system in Ukraine”. The task of such an act should be to determine the subjects of information policy in this area, the powers of individual bodies and non-governmental organizations or economic entities involved in the development and operation of electronic health care system. An important element of regulation should be to address the issue of cybersecurity when using eHealth and to determine the responsibility of specific entities for possible violations or threats to the system. It is determined that eHealth should cover all areas of medical services, including “military” and “departmental medicine”. It is emphasized that an important element of the reliable functioning of eHealth should be the training of medical staff to work with databases. At the same time, the provision on the possibility of providing “cloud” services related to the functioning of the electronic health care system should be taken into account during the creation of the draft law “On cloud services”. The possibility of using “cloud” storage of medical data and requirements for the use of “cloud” information services provided from territories of a jurisdiction other than the national one requires is assessment.

SummaryBackground: Clinical knowledge bases of problem-medication pairs are necessary for many informatics solutions that improve patient safety, such as clinical summarization. However, developing these knowledge bases can be challenging.Objective: We sought to validate a previously developed crowdsourcing approach for generating a knowledge base of problem-medication pairs in a large, non-university health care system with a widely used, commercially available electronic health record.Methods: We first retrieved medications and problems entered in the electronic health record by clinicians during routine care during a six month study period. Following the previously published approach, we calculated the link frequency and link ratio for each pair then identified a threshold cutoff for estimated problem-medication pair appropriateness through clinician review; problem-medication pairs meeting the threshold were included in the resulting knowledge base. We selected 50 medications and their gold standard indications to compare the resulting knowledge base to the pilot knowledge base developed previously and determine its recall and precision.Results: The resulting knowledge base contained 26,912 pairs, had a recall of 62.3% and a precision of 87.5%, and outperformed the pilot knowledge base containing 11,167 pairs from the previous study, which had a recall of 46.9% and a precision of 83.3%.Conclusions: We validated the crowdsourcing approach for generating a knowledge base of problem-medication pairs in a large non-university health care system with a widely used, commercially available electronic health record, indicating that the approach may be generalizable across health-care settings and clinical systems. Further research is necessary to better evaluate the knowledge, to compare crowdsourcing with other approaches, and to evaluate if incorporating the knowledge into electronic health records improves patient outcomes.Citation: McCoy AB, Wright A, Krousel-Wood M, Thomas EJ, McCoy JA, Sittig DF.

The health care system in the State of Israel consists of two sectors - the public sector, which includes government-owned hospitals and medical institutes. The public health sector includes the community health system, health funds, family medicine, the general care system and the mental health care system. The second sector is the private sector, which includes private hospitals and medical institutes. Both sectors are supervised by the Israeli Ministry of Health, which is the supreme governmental authority through which it implements its policy in the entire health system in Israel. The law provides and guarantees medical insurance for every resident of Israel, the right to receive medical treatment, the prohibition of discrimination, informed consent to medical treatment, the right to receive an additional medical opinion, the dignity and privacy of the patient and the right to attend. Health funds in Israel were established before the State of Israel was established. The ideological concept of the health funds was based on the principle of equality and mutual assistance.

The transition from the Fordist hegemonic model to post-Fordism is a complex process. It is not the unavoidable result of technological changes, but the contingent consequence of a hegemonic, political, struggle taking place at the different spheres of the social. This article studies the transformations that took place in the Israeli health care system during the last two decades in order to exemplify the political and contradictory character of the transition to post-Fordism. The article emphasises the contradiction between the partial commodification of financing and the privatisation of certain health care facilities, and the legislation of the National Health Insurance Law, which guaranteed the right to access to public health care services.

The study identified key factors in the effective management of the health care system. Emphasis was placed on defining mechanisms and tools for public administration of the national health care system, which determine profound systemic changes in the reform of the industry and developed an improved methodology for assessing the results of effective development of public administration mechanisms through the transformation of procedures and rules governing the interaction of agents. market of medical services of Ukraine. These provisions, in fact, necessitate an analysis of the development of public administration mechanisms in the field of health care in Ukraine as a subject of study, and their interaction in the process of systemic changes in the industry to establish links between major categories. Based on the analysis of the results of the study, the current state of the health care system of Ukraine as a prerequisite for the modernization of the medical sector and increase its competitiveness. State regulation of the health care system should be divided into specific types of regulatory actions that would determine the subject, content, structure of the object of regulation and other parameters. The system of public administration is a set of rules, laws and procedures governing the interaction of participants at the national level. The determinants of the development of mechanisms of state management of the medical sector of Ukraine (socio-political, economic, demographic, socio-cultural) are determined and substantiated. The main reasons that hinder the development of the market of medical services in Ukraine are identified and the main directions and tools for overcoming these obstacles are outlined. The concept of systemic transformation of public administration mechanisms in the field of health care is substantiated, which defines the basic principles, among which are decentralization, democratization, self-regulation, autonomy, intensification, optimization of functions, which provides for diversification of ownership, sectoral governance reform, improving regional governance, financial reform, etc.
