Journal Title: Проблеми економіки - Year 2015, Vol 2015, Issue 2
Abstract
The article presents the author’s vision of forming a paradigm of the health-oriented economy as a conceptual model corresponding to people-centered management of the health sector. The paradigm includes the purpose, object, subjects and mechanism of the state regulation, within its framework it is supposed to create a unified state system of reproduction, preservation and strengthening of the nation health through the socio-economic mechanisms of the reproduction of health capital, taking into account all possible health risks, which will allow taking a course to the "health preserving" strategies regarding actions of the subjects instead of the "therapeutic" ones specific for the modern society. There have been identified undeveloped behavioral strategies and tendencies of the investing attitude to health (barriers) preventing the formation of the health service and resulting in the existence of socially irresponsible behavior regarding the household health (underdevelopment of the middle class, which spreads the rules and regulations of self-preservation), business (lack of funds for modernization and improvement of working conditions, nonconformance to ecological standards of manufacturing, lack of health insurance programs for employees) and the state (low level of implementation of the constitutional obligations on the human right to health and the factors ensuring it, a controversial health care reform, etc.). The directions of the state policy and measures forming the socio-cultural, legal, economic incentives of health capital accumulation have been determined. In the author's opinion, the use of the paradigm of the health-oriented economy as a means of methodological control, will contribute to the formation of the science-based health sector, rational use of human resources, effectiveness of the state regulation of the market of medical services, replacing of the dominant in the society "disease-centrist" concept, which provides for recourse to medical assistance upon the disease, 4-P medicine concept.
