Materials and methods. In the course of the research, analytical and comparative methods were used to study the impact of various models of organizational structures on the effectiveness of private medical institutions. Scientific publications devoted to the features of functional, matrix, and design structures, as well as their application in healthcare, were analyzed. A review of practical cases from medical institutions was conducted, including data on the effectiveness of the implementation of various management structures. Secondary data was drawn from reports of medical organizations, scientific articles and publications, as well as empirical studies aimed at assessing the impact of the organizational structure on the quality of service, customer satisfaction, and financial performance.
