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.

In modern conditions, the effectiveness of management of facilities largely depends on the quality of information support of the management of these facilities. The availability of reliable, timely and optimal information on the state of facilities and trends in their development should facilitate the development and adoption of the most optimal and effective decisions on health care management in both the industry and specific health care institutions. The article identifies the importance and significance of the use of information and computer technologies in public administration of the health care system. The place of public administration in the processes of application of information and computer technologies is considered. The levels of introduction of information and computer technologies in the state management of the health care system are characterized. The peculiarities of using the eHealth system for the purpose of digitalization of public administration and realization of medical services in Ukraine are determined. It has been proven that the implementation of eHealth in the health care system requires careful monitoring and communication process between healthcare professionals, patients, end users of health services. The characteristic of the technological accounting tool, which is the main component of the eHealth system, is given. The process of eHealth implementation in the modern healthcare system in Ukraine is analyzed. The main advantages and problems of the implementation and development of a single electronic health care system eHealth are described. The directions of improvement of the process of introduction of information and computer technologies in the information and communication system of public administration in the field of health care of different levels are investigated, namely: realization of the project of development of innovative information and computer system on communication between health care institutions concerning treatment patient, implementation of the project of development of the database on doctors and personnel reserves of different levels, implementation of the project of development and formation of the database on the state of public health.

The article examines main models of public administration and regulation of health care systems, assessed with an account for their organizational and financial characteristics: predominantly state, predominantly social and insurance, predominantly private models. The predominantly state model characterized by a significant role of the state is observed in the UK, Greece, Denmark, Norway, Portugal, Sweden, etc., the predominantly social and insurance model is found in Austria, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, France, Switzerland, and Japan with the predominantly private model followed in the USA, South Korea, and other counties. The international ranking on the effectiveness of health systems is attained in terms of their response to challenges of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Based on the analysis, the critical issues for the health care systems were highlighted: insufficient funding of the public health care system, irrational distribution of health care costs, as well as the fact that health care systems were not designed for an emergency situations. The irrational distribution of public funds is a consequence of the low efficiency of health care management at all levels, which leads to concomitant problems in health care, such as staffing and material support. Based on the study of the main foreign models of public administration and regulation of the health care system, it was shown that for the Kazakh and Ukrainian models of the health-care system public administration, it is feasible to follow Germany and Singapore with their developed health insurance system based on a combination of the principles of individual responsibility and universal affordable medical care, as well as the well-coordinated systemic work of public health authorities in a state of emergency. Thus, further improving the efficiency of health care system management is one of the main tasks for social policy in Kazakhstan and Ukraine. Dealing with this task largely depends on the correct choice of the appropriate model of the health-care system public administration.

Background: After a national policy change in 2013 disallowing body checking in Pee Wee ice hockey games, the rate of injury was reduced by 50% in Alberta. However, the effect on associated health care costs has not been examined previously. Hypothesis: A national policy removing body checking in Pee Wee (ages 11-12 years) ice hockey games will reduce injury rates, as well as costs. Study Design: Cost-effectiveness analysis alongside cohort study. Level of Evidence: Level 3. Methods: A cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted alongside a cohort study comparing rates of game injuries in Pee Wee hockey games in Alberta in a season when body checking was allowed (2011-2012) with a season when it was disallowed after a national policy change (2013-2014). The effectiveness measure was the rate of game injuries per 1000 player-hours. Costs were estimated based on associated health care use from both the publicly funded health care system and privately paid health care cost perspectives. Probabilistic sensitivity analysis was conducted using bootstrapping. Results: Disallowing body checking significantly reduced the rate of game injuries (−2.21; 95% CI [−3.12, −1.31] injuries per 1000 player-hours). We found no statistically significant difference in public health care system (−$83; 95% CI [−$386, $220]) or private health care costs (−$70; 95% CI [−$198, $57]) per 1000 player-hours. The probability that the policy of disallowing body checking was dominant (with both fewer injuries and lower costs) from the perspective of the public health care system and privately paid health care was 78% and 92%, respectively. Conclusion: Given the significant reduction in injuries, combined with lower public health care system and private costs in the large majority of iterations in the probabilistic sensitivity analysis, our findings support the policy change disallowing body checking in ice hockey in 11- and 12-year-old ice hockey leagues.
