Now that the pandemic has entered the second phase, in which countries are adapting to the crisis, governments need to determine incentives that will contribute to the sustainability of the health system and human health. Regarding this, human resources are a significant factor, which affects the sustainability of any system, and it is important to establish a relevant motivation system that will withstand the challenges that society will face in the coming period. The aim of this paper is to analyse three dimensions of state incentives (employment program, COVID-19 bonus, training opportunities) and to examine their influence on healthcare workers’ motivation and the sustainability of the health system in the Republic of Serbia. The empirical research was conducted on a sample of 207 respondents employed in the tertiary level of healthcare. Data analysis included exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM). The research results confirmed the existence of all three incentives and indicated that state incentive “training opportunities” has the strongest effect on the motivation of health workers and the sustainability of the healthcare system.

Debates on the reform of health care fi nancing in the former socialist countries during the period of social transformation were conducted as part of a wider debate regarding changes in the overall social system. Existing financing models and innovative measures were reviewed. As part of such discussions, the voluntary health insurance market also received a lot of the attention. Diff erent views were expressed in the debates that were conducted during the 1990s, from seeing a suitable supplementary source of health care funding to those who highlighted the constraints in its implementation and modest results that can be expected. As one of the criteria for assessing the suitability of this mechanism, we could review what has been achieved so far in its application. Th e paper looks at the ground covered and the situation in the former socialist countries at the end of the second decade of this century, with particular reference to Serbia and countries in its surroundings. When it comes to Serbia it can be expected that the limiting factors from the last ten years will be still manifested in the future. It is estimated that there are weak prospects of activating voluntary health insurance as a way to alleviate the problems of insuffi cient fi nancing of the health care system.
