This report evaluates the resources dedicated to telemedicine services in Ukrainian healthcare institutions. The primary goal of the study was to understand the current utilization of telemedicine and to analyze the costs involved, with a detailed focus on the components of these costs. The findings will support efforts to enhance the purchasing mechanisms for the National Health Service of Ukraine, paving the way for further improvements in telemedicine provision.
LHSS in Ukraine is supporting improvements in the legislative and policy environment so as to enable expanded access to quality medical services using telemedicine. The analysis consists of 18 chapters and covers a wide range of topics, including terms and definitions related to telemedicine, its role in provision of medical care in different types of health facilities, rights and responsibilities of patients and medical professionals, and more.
To develop its telemedicine system, health-sector leaders in Ukraine are seeking to leverage the experiences of telemedicine implementation globally, drawing on best practices and avoiding common pitfalls to effectively increase telemedicine access and quality. This review includes analysis of how telemedicine can be designed and deployed equitably and inclusively.
Цей звіт детально описує поточний стан телемедицини в Україні та включає дані, зібрані практично з кожного регіону країни.

This analysis identified several inefficiencies related to how the financial budget and other financial resources are allocated and spent. It also presented potential actions that can improve resource allocation within the MoHSS budget and address some of the challenges identified during the analysis.
This process guide outlines an iterative process to support budgetary allocation decisions aligned with regional populations and needs as prioritized in the EHSP. The process guide proposes a broad decision-making framework that can be used to review current practices and move toward more efficient approaches in resource allocation.
This document describes the process to be followed for the regular revisions of the EHSP and presents important elements that support the updating, so that an EHSP that is a sustainable, equitable, and accessible—within financial and other constraints—is delivered to the population.
This PSCSE landscape report was compiled using evidence generated from a comprehensive documentary review and selected key informant interviews conducted to gain insight into the status of implementation of existing PPPs, and the challenges, lessons learned, and success stories.
The Namibian government has a long history of working with the private sector to deliver essential health services. However, the engagement between the Ministry of Health and Social Services (MOHSS) and private sector actors within the health sector is mostly through ad hoc interactions during national campaigns, planning processes and service delivery. Thus, there is a need for more-coordinated and more-strategic engagement to effectively leverage the private sector's capacity and strategically position the private sector’s role in advancing universal health coverage (UHC).
