The Impact of Healthcare Financing on Labor Productivity in a Digitalized World
Relevance of the Study.Given the digital transformation of the economy and the growing social importance of healthcare, analyzing the efficiency of financial resource use in the sector and its impact on medical personnel productivity is particularly relevant.Increased government and insurance spending, the introduction of mandatory social health insurance, and the rapid development of digital technologies, including artificial intelligence-based solutions, require a rethinking of traditional approaches to assessing the effectiveness of healthcare financing.The aim of the study is to identify and economically substantiate the relationship between healthcare financing and labor productivity in the context of digital technology implementation.The results demonstrate that increased healthcare financing, accompanied by the digitalization of processes and the implementation of AI solutions, contributes to increased labor productivity by reducing unproductive labor costs, streamlining clinical and administrative processes, and more efficient use of human resources.It has been established that, given the limited share of healthcare spending in GDP, the key factor in sustainable growth is improving the efficiency of financial resource use, rather than increasing its quantitative growth. Conclusions. It is concluded that digital technologies and artificial intelligence are important tools for transforming financial resources into increased labor productivity and the sustainability of the healthcare
