In Russia disputes on the need to abandon Compulsory Health Insurance (CHI) and return to the tax-based financing are yet to subside. At present, after the statement of the President of the Russian Federation V. Putin about the possibility to establish a state health care corporation, discussions on the issue have only escalated. Purpose. To conduct a comparative assessment of the public health financing model impact on the access and structural characteristics of health care delivery in the developed countries. Material and methods. Assessment of the potential impact of public funding models on the health system performance is carried out by analyzing variations in the main indicators of financial access, health care uptake and health status of the population, achieved in the developed countries with different health financing models. Results. Health care expenditures in countries with CHI are higher than in countries with the tax-based financing model. In countries with CHI the share of administrative expenses is slightly higher than in countries with the tax-based financing system. The share of spending on preventive care is slightly higher in countries with the tax-based financing system. There is a slightly lower level of outpatient and inpatient care uptake in countries with the tax-based financing system compared to countries with CHI. The premature mortality rate in countries with CHI is slightly lower than in countries with the tax-based system. Conclusion. The obtained data indicate that there are no significant differences in the access and structural characteristics of medical care in the health care system of the developed countries with different financing models. The main difference remains the level of health expenditures. In countries with CHI, the level of health expenditures is higher than in countries with the tax-based financing, which is largely due to the existence of a separate source of funding. The level of administrative costs in countries with CHI is also higher than in countries with the tax-based system.

The subject of the research is healthcare financing systems in European countries and Russia. The relevance of the problem stems from the possibility of using successful foreign experience for the organization of healthcare financing in Russia. The purpose of the research was to examine the specific features of the establishing and funding healthcare models in countries of Europe and the possibilities of their experience in organizing healthcare financing in the Russian Federation. The paper examines the current state of the two models of health financing in the EU — budget funding and insurance. By the example of individual European countries, the operation specifics of each model are analyzed, their advantages and disadvantages are assessed. Particular attention is paid to the specifics of the healthcare financing system in Russia and its difference from foreign systems. Taking into account the foreign experience and the need to improve the Russian compulsory healthcare insurance (CHI) system, the paper proposes ways to improve the Russian model of healthcare financing: establishment of a unified organizational and financial CHI model; introduction of a system of equal participation of the employer and employee in the financing of compulsory healthcare insurance; introduction of a family insurance system; promotion of voluntary healthcare insurance programs. It is concluded that the keypoint in the CHI system restructuring should be the search for socially acceptable and economically justified forms of attracting public funds. At the same time, it is extremely important that the funds received by medical institutions do not increase the shadow incomes in the economy but are spent on the development of the healthcare system.
