Objective: Introduction: Increasing of the availability and quality of health care in rural areas is one of the priority directions of public health and regional development policy. The need for reforming of the network of secondary health care facilities is due to the fact, that they are unable to meet the needs of the population in this specialized type of medical care in the conditions of the existing structure and funding system. The aim: to analyze the existing legislation regulating the establishment and operation of hospital districts; to determine the methodology for monitoring and evaluating of the activity of the hospital district on the example of the Poltava region.

Patients And Methods: Materials and methods: In this work a set of methods is used: system approach, bibliosemantic, legal, logical modeling.

Results: Review: A managerial tool capable of tracking the process and demonstrating the impact of projects, programs and development policies is monitoring and evaluation. The basis of evaluation is the creation of different indicators and indexes. The system of these indicators provides an opportunity to assess the social, medical, economic and environmental aspects of development of hospital district. The monitoring and evaluation program should include monitoring of implementation (contributions and activities) and monitoring of the results of work of the hospital districts (short-term and long-term).

Conclusion: Conclusions: Hospital districts are created with the aim of optimizing of the organization and functioning of the network of health facilities. The Management Board's decision should be based on valid, reliable information on the development of the hospital district. Compliance with the monitoring and evaluation methodology makes it possible to provide the health care system with qualitative and timely data at all stages of its reformation.
