Abstract

In different developed and developing countries, there are several forms of ownership of medical organizations: Nonprofit, For-profit, State-owned, Public-private partnership. Such diversity is mostly due to the particularities of the medical market. However, there are predominantly two forms of ownership in Georgia – for-profit and state-owned. The aim of the article is to determine as to why the numerous forms of ownership of medical institutions came to be; which of these forms is most developed and what are the root causes of this; what led to the development of only two forms of ownership in the health care system in Georgia; what are the flaws of such ownership and what recommendations could be provided as to improve the existing situation.
