The MOH to Include Five New
Directorates
Within administrative reform, five
new directorates will be allocated
within the MOH. The structure of
the Ministry will be expanded by the
Directorate for Strategic Planning
and Eurointegration, Directorate
on Public Health, Directorate on
Medical Services, Pharmaceutical
Directorate, Directorate on Medical
Education, Human Resources and
Science.
“Our team is very interested in
strengthening the Ministry and
will make any effort for operative
and detailed communication of all
parties of this process,” acting Head
of the MOH Ulana Suprun stated.
In Aug, Cabinet of Ministers of
Ukraine approved the range of
legislative acts aimed to launch the
next stage of reformation of the
state governance.
Deputy Health Minister Sivak
Resigned from the Office
Deputy Minister of Healthcare
Oksana Sivak reported she
would leave her position due to
“disagreements in the approaches
to teamwork and the loss of mutual
trust”. On 9/08/2017, the Cabinet of
Minister upheld the resignation of
Ms. Sivak.
“Healthcare system of Ukraine still
needs real changes,” Ms. Sivak
stated. “A lot of reformation phases
has already been implemented, part
of them is in process, some of them
were failed. I wish that all plans
were implemented”.
Oksana Sivak was appointed at
the position of Deputy Minister in
Aug 2016 by acting Minister Ulana
Suprun. In the MOH Ms. Sivak
was responsible for the issues of
European integration. She aslo
oversaw the development of the
Public Health Center, as well as the
Ukraine Launches Procurement
of Medicines/Medical Devices
Reform
The Cabinet of Ministers approved
the reform’s Concept on August
23, 2017. The reform shall be
implemented by 2019 to bring
transparency, efficiency, best
international practices and fair
competition into the procurements
system.
The Concept introduces a new
approach to public procurement
of medicines and medical
devices through the independent
centralized procurement
organization, coordinated through
MoH. The organization shall take
over the public procurement
functions from MoH, regional
governments and public healthcare
institutions.
The Concept defines two
main stages of the reform
implementation:
1.	 Setting up of the organization,
creating regulatory framework
and internal policies/
procedures, selection and
training of the core team;
conducting pilot procurement
projects (2nd half of 2017);
2.	 Further development and
capacity building of the
organization in the areas
of e-infrastructure (using
a specialized electronic
procurement platform),
analytics, international
cooperation; conducting
selected regional procurement
projects (2018).
When fully implemented,
the centralized procurement
organization will procure medicines
and medical devices at the national
(replacing the current temporary
system of procurement through
international organizations), as well
as local level.
MoH is now developing a detailed
implementation step plan, to be
approved further by the Cabinet.
The need for the reform is caused
by ineffective and non-transparent
centralized procurement system
of MoH, as well as decentralized
system on the regional level, used in
the recent decades.

Dobrobut Medical Chain to
Open a Cardio Center by the
End of 2019
Ukrainian medical chain Dobrobut
plans to open new cardiology center
by the end of 2019 to conduct
stenting and coronary angiography
as well as open heart surgeries. The
amount of USD 100 mio is planned
to be invested. Dobrobut launched
its first cardio clinic in 2016. It plans
to conduct 200-250 heart surgeries
in 2017; in 2018, they should
increase to 400.
Moreover, the chain plans to
develop oncology and pediatric
directions. The company is building
its second children’s hospital. In
Oct 2017, Dobrobut will launch
diagnostic oncology center in
Cancer Institute.
Dobrobut medical chain was
established in 2001. It currently
includes three children clinics, two
polyclinics and one hospital for
adult patients, as well as a first
aid station. The company’s stuff
amounts 10 ths employees, which
provide services to 1.5 mio patients
per year.
Voting for the Medical
Reform Undermined
On Jul 8, Ukrainian Parliament
preliminarily approved the Draft
Law #6327 on state financial
guaranties in provision of medical
services and drugs. Afterwards, the
document was proceeded by the
Parliamentary Committee on Public
Health.The MPs proposed 886 edits
to the Draft Law; 396 of them were
approved in the end. However,
according to the acting Head of the
MOH Ulana Suprun, the Head of
the Parliamentary Committee Olga
Bogomolets refused to sign the
document for voting. Consequently,
the document was signed by the
Deputy Head of the Committee, but
the Parliament didn’t have time to
vote the Draft Law.
Therefore, the approval of the
medical reform actively pushed
by the MOH, was sabotaged in
the Parliament. According to
the board member of the Anti
Corruption Action Centre, the
blocking of the medical reform is
in the interests of the medical elite,
which uncontrolledly manages the
budgets of medical institutions.
The voting for the reform was
postponed till Sep, when the
Parliament resumes its work. Ms.
Suprun stated that the MOH would
continue working on the reform
implementation.
The New Reimbursement List
Approved
The MOH approved the new
register of drugs, which are subject
to reimbursement. The list was
expanded by 33 new position to 199
names. The value of 30 drugs will

I wish that all plans were implemented”. Oksana Sivak was appointed at the position of Deputy Minister in Aug 2016 by acting Minister Ulana Suprun. In the MOH Ms. Sivak was responsible for the issues of European integration. She aslo oversaw the development of the Public Health Center, as well as the Ukraine Launches Procurement of Medicines/Medical Devices Reform The Cabinet of Ministers approved the reform’s Concept on August 23, 2017. The reform shall be implemented by 2019 to bring transparency, efficiency, best international practices and fair competition into the procurements system. The Concept introduces a new approach to public procurement of medicines and medical devices through the independent centralized procurement organization, coordinated through MoH. The organization shall take over the public procurement functions from MoH, regional governments and public healthcare institutions. The Concept defines two main stages of the reform implementation: 1. Setting up of the organization, creating regulatory framework and internal policies/ procedures, selection and training of the core team; conducting pilot procurement projects (2nd half of 2017); 2. Further development and capacity building of the organization in the areas of e-infrastructure (using a specialized electronic procurement platform), analytics, international cooperation; conducting selected regional procurement projects (2018). When fully implemented, the centralized procurement organization will procure medicines and medical devices at the national (replacing the current temporary system of procurement through international organizations), as well as local level. MoH is now developing a detailed implementation step plan, to be approved further by the Cabinet. The need for the reform is caused by ineffective and non-transparent centralized procurement system of MoH, as well as decentralized system on the regional level, used in the recent decades.
