| Summary: | The author has proved the prospects of medical tourism development in Ukraine. The analysis of the concepts of “tourism” and “health tourism” has been carried out; their features have been singled out. The expediency of distinguishing the concept of “health tourism” on “medical” and “health” has been proved. It has been offered to amend the Art. 1 of the Law of Ukraine “On Tourism” by defining the terms of “medical tourism” and “health tourism”.
The content of the concept of “medical tourism” has been studied; its constituent elements have been singled out; the author’s definition of the concepts of “health tourism”, “medical tourism” has been formulated; the sphere of their law-enforcement has been defined.
The author has developed propositions to improve the regulatory acts regulating the circulation of medical tourist services (health and medical) in Ukraine, namely: the Tax Code of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine “On Public and Private Partnership”, the Law of Ukraine “On Licensing of Economic Activities”. The author has also offered to develop and approve the National Program for the Development of Medical Tourism in Ukraine. |
