Public Health as an Object of Investments: Basic Procedures for Assessment and Modelling

Abstract

The worldwide drop in GDP in the COVID–19 pandemic
will be offset by the state investments in the economy.
Governments are already allocating additional budgets
to develop health care and support the economy, and this
trend will continue after the end of the crisis. Public
health management is a complex multifactorial process,
sensitive to the differences of individual regions with their
pronounced specifics of natural and climatic resources,
socio-economic and other conditions. At the same time,
an important scientific issue is the lack of tools to quantitatively model the relationship between the structure and
the volume of investments in public health and their level
in the region. This paper analyzes the methodical foundations and tools for assessing and modeling the level of
public health as the investment object.
