In2009 inUkrainereimbursement was started as a new means of economic-legal regulation of relations in the health care system. But for today in our country there are many difficulties in the implementation of National System for reimbursement of medical expenses.Aim. To evaluate the availability of medicines with reference pricing, specific categories of outpatient patients and analysis of drug release within the framework of the “Available Medicines” program in the context of changes in the current legislation.Materials and methods. In our work we used the following methods of scientific analysis: information-analytical, methods of grouping, comparison, content analysis, retrospective method, questionnaires, statistical.Results. This year, compared to the previous year, there is an increase in the number of population groups receiving drugs free of charge, the largest contingent among which are victims of the Chernobyl accident of the I category. The privilleged population in Vinnytsia, which receives medicines with payment of 50 % of their value, did not increase, and the largest number of recipes falls on disabled people of the I and II groups. Among the diseases as of 1.10.2017, the largest contingent is represented by cancer (39.21 %) and Parkinson’s disease (23.72 %). Under the “Available Medication” program, the largest number of recipe free reimbursements and partial reimbursement for ambulatory patients is taken by cardiovascular disease (75.88 %). The main problems of implementation of the program “Available medicines” are outlined in the example of pharmacies of Vinnytsia.Conclusions. The analysis of modern legislative and regulatory documents on the provision of pharmaceutical assistance to preferential categories of the population ofUkraine has shown the need to expand the list of medicines for the treatment of these nosologies and the introduction of a combination of drugs. Steady growth dynamics (2015-2017 years) of availability of medicines for privilleged population groups in the city ofVinnytsia has been established. It has also been noted that within the period from 2015 to 1.10.2017, the number of recipes issued to cancer patients make up the largest share. Among the privilleged categories receiving prescription medications with a 50 % value for the largest contingent during the years studied, disabled persons of Groups I and II remain free of charge – victims of the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant of the I category, and for nosologies – oncological diseases. The tendency to increase the number of prescription recipes for patients with hypertension due to subsidies provided on the regional level. In 2017, the monthly increase in the release of drugs that are included in the “Available Medications” program has been noted. The problems that we discovered with the implementation of the “Available Medications” program can be overcome by further improvement of the regulatory documents. In order to increase the socio-economic efficiency of pharmaceutical assistance, we consider it necessary to introduce electronic registers of patients and electronic recipes within the framework of the electronic health system (E-health) for other preferential categories, which will improve the quality of provision of pharmaceutical services and the registry system of such categories of population.
