It is based on the Semashko model with rigid management and financing procedures. The disadvantages accumulated in the national health care system due to lack of modernization, disregard of the population needs, non-use of modern global trends, the inefficient operation of the system and the high level of corruption cause the underlying situation. The decision of new government policy in the sector is introduction of new financial mechanisms, in order to ensure human rights in the health sector. Methodology.

Results showed that the availability of medical services is the key problem in any society.

In some countries such as the United States, practically the whole medicine is funded by voluntary health insurance (VHI). In Europe the mandatory health insurance (MHI) and government funding are the most significant source of funds. Practical importance.

Premiums for health insurance are the source of funding.
