Abstract: To form an effective mechanism for financial support of health care in Russia, it is necessary to introduce into scientific and practical activities clearly-defined concepts that characterize medical services and sources of their financing.

The importance of a sufficient level of staffing for the functioning and development of any cluster can hardly be overestimated. This is especially true when it comes to the cluster in the field of health care. The purpose of this article is to substantiate the need to make a number of managerial and financial decisions based on an analysis of the problems with the provision of medical personnel for a cluster in the field of health care in the Baikal region. The study, carried out with the help of a system-think-activity approach, made it possible to fix that the cluster in the field of health care in the Baikal region is experiencing a significant shortage of medical personnel. At the same time, the analysis revealed negative demographic trends in the region, combined with unsatisfactory indicators of the health of the population. It has been revealed that the programs adopted by the state authorities do not allow increasing to the required extent the provision of medical staff for the cluster’s organizations. The allocated volumes of public funding are insufficient, and the developed management decisions do not meet the challenges of the time. The proposals have been developed, using strategic management tools, aimed at leveling the weaknesses and reinforcing the advantages identified in the Baikal cluster in the field of health care. The proposals are aimed at using the opportunities that open up for a medicine thanks to modern information and communication technologies and to reorientation of the State policy to the use of national financial resources, primarily budgetary ones, as a result of revising theoretical approaches to the role of a State in the economy.

The need to provide long-term care for the elderly and disabled persons in a situation of limited personal resources can jeopardize the financial security of a private household. This is related both with additional expenditures on various social services and artificial restricting the economic activity of household agents committed the care function. At some point the financial problems of the household are transformed into social problems. The social nature of the problem of long-term care determines the participation of the state in organizing a special system aimed at solving problems of outside assistance to the elderly and disabled and its financing. The rapid growth in the number of people in need of such assistance leads to searching the sources to cover the increasing costs of maintaining the system and providing social services. One of them is connected with the insurance system that can be introduced into the financial mechanism through the insurance coverage to beneficiaries and financing of infrastructure facilities. There have been analyzed the main options for including non-state insurance into the mechanism of leveling the financial risks of households associated with the long-term care. These are cumulative insurance, classic risky personal insurance and specialized long-term care insurance. There have been defined the immediate prospects for participation of the Russian insurers in this segment, presented the entry points to the modern Russian model of long-term care of the compulsory social insurance system.
