PRESERVATION AND STRENGTHENING THE HEALTH OF THE POPULATION THROUGH THE PRISM OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Abstract: The article reveals the essence of the category of "population health", the methodology and methods of its cognition, the main methods and techniques of the empirical and theoretical levels of research, the technology of their practical use in ensuring sustainable socio-economic development of the country. The main attention is paid to the analysis and assessment of the health status of the population – the main productive force of society, on the basis of which it is concluded that in Ukraine there is a deterioration in the corresponding characteristics. It is noted that this is primarily influenced by insufficient financial and resource support of the medical industry as a whole. Other factors that negatively affect the health of the Ukrainian population are also indicated. An important role in overcoming these negative phenomena is played by the modernization of the medical industry, the rational use of its resource potential, the formation of a civilized market of medical services. In this regard, it is emphasized that the activities of the health care system of Ukraine should be based on unified national principles, including the formation of economically viable systems for organizing medical care, taking into account the real needs of the population, the possibilities of meeting them, as well as the most appropriate allocation of resources and their effective use. The peculiarities of the current situation with the spread of coronavirus, which led to the exacerbation of existing problems, which require the search for new approaches to their solution, related to the adoption of fundamental decisions, especially at the state level are taken into account. In addition, the article provides an assessment of the main results of the ongoing reforms in the health care system of Ukraine. In the course of the study, considerable attention is paid to structural and typological features, as well as the conditions for the formation and strengthening of public health - an important factor in increasing labor productivity, developing the economy based on the principles of sustainable development. The economic, innovative and technological aspects of the development of the health care system are summarized. New approaches to further strengthening and preserving the health of the population in the context of implementing the tasks of sustainable development are substantiated.
