Abstract: Abstract— The paper (part 1) analyzes the dynamics of indicators characterizing the state of health of the Russian population. A comparative analysis of the development of healthcare in Russia and other countries is carried out. The conclusion is confirmed that the main problem in the development of Russian healthcare is the insufficient volume of public funding. The drawbacks and limited potential of the adopted funding model are assessed. A possible way to increase public funding is proposed. It is shown that the availability of medical care is reduced as a result of the so-called optimization of healthcare. A possible way to improve the territorial organization of medical services is considered. The effectiveness of the Russian healthcare system in the fight against the coronavirus pandemic is assessed.
