Popis: The purpose of the study is to find the most effective model for public procurement of medicines (M) and medical devices (MD) in Ukraine. The objectives of the study are: the analysis of legislation developed for public procurement of M and MD in Ukraine; the historic study of public procurement of M and MD in Ukraine; the development of relationship between public procurement of M and MD with the state budget and state programs; the determination of advantages and disadvantages of centralized and decentralized procurement of M and MD; argumentation of my choice of the model for public procurement of M and MD in Ukraine. The study found that the purchase of M and MD in Ukraine is carried out in a centralized and a decentralized manner. The centralized approach to procurement of M and MD dominates with respect to the decentralized approach. This can be explained by the history of the country, as the part of former Soviet Union. Centralized and decentralized approaches to public procurement of M and MD have both disadvantages and advantages. The best option for the country will be a combination of centralized and decentralized approach to procurement of M and MD.
