Abstract: Abstract Solidarity and cooperation are the building blocks of cooperatives and strategically significant phenomena that are as old as history of mankind; however, these will not grow old as long as humanity exists considering its economic function. The subject of the study is to comparatively analyze establishment bureaucracies relating to cooperatives in different countries. The aim of the study is to identify the problematic elements and make suggestions as to the solution to these problems by comparatively analyzing the bureaucratic process of establishing cooperatives. The study is limited with the development of policies and established bureaucracy for health cooperatives in the UK and Turkey. In line with the qualitative research method, literature review was conducted, and technical reports and analyses which were prepared by national and international institutions and organizations were utilized. Additionally, semi-structured interviews were performed with both countries’ authorized individuals. The information was analyzed through both strength, weakness, opportunity, and threat (SWOT) analysis and political, economic, sociological, technological, legal, and environmental (PESTLE) analysis techniques. Following the evaluation of the findings, the research was concluded with recommendations. As a result of the study, it was found that the UK can make improvements specially to strengthen its digital security, while Turkey can make the applications easier by first moving the applications online.
