Starting from the year 2020 The Ukrainian law “Regarding the state financial guarantees of medical public service” is going to come into operation. This means amongst others that the program of medical guarantees will work in its entirety, defining which services will be covered by the state budget. “Recommend three medical services, which are not going to be included in the program of medical guarantees for sure?” this is the type of issue, which participants of the training National Health Service of Ukraine project will be asked to solve.
It is going to be the first time when the National Health Service of Ukraine organizes intensive training for managers of healthcare institutions of a specialized level. “NHSU Academy Camp” is the name of the project, where in late July over 150 participants will come to understanding on how healthcare institutions can successfully prepare themselves for a new model of financing, which will be implemented from the year 2020.
The project is supported by the Swiss-Ukrainian institution “Medical training development”.
The speakers of the Camp are going to be:
- Tatjana Trupec, World Bank (Croatia);
- Axel Hoffmann, The Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute;
- Pavlo Kovtoniuk, Minister of Health of Ukraine;
- Oleh Petrenko. National Health Service of Ukraine.
What does the “universal health coverage” and the “health benefits package” mean?
Where does the changing healthcare system move in general?
What, why, and how will the state purchase in and pay for with budget funds according to its contract with NHSU?
And most importantly, which medical institution could be called successful in the year 2020?
Participants will receive all the answers from the “NHSU Academy Camp” experts in late July 2019. The training is going to be held both in a form of lectures and in a format of group interaction, where participants will be able to share their own experiences of managing an institution while working in groups.
Moreover, during the event there is going to be a presentation of the Academy of National Health Service of Ukraine – an innovative, ambitious, and integrated project, aimed to receive managerial skills in a healthcare system.
The institution is going to be a place of learning and development for the MHU managers. In fact, one of the principles of the Academy is continuous development and training.
In order to take part in the Camp, you should apply here until the 14th of June.
It should be pointed out, that the National Health Service of Ukraine is the central government authority, which operates according to state funds through the medical guarantees program. Starting from the year 2020 NHSU will reimburse the services of the primary care, first-aid, specialized, tertiary, and palliative care, medical rehabilitation, medical aid for children before 16, and the a pregnancy and labor aid, as well as a reimbursement of drugs (“Affordable drugs”).
