Šiame straipsnyje nagrinėjamos Lietuvos ir Vokietijos sveikatos draudimo sistemos. Pateikiama Lietuvos ir Vokietijos sveikatos draudimo lyginamoji analizė siekiant išanalizuoti Lietuvos ir Vokietijos sveikatos draudimo sistemą. Daugiausia dėmesio skiriama pagrindinių šios sistemos dalyvių tarpusavio sąveikai, atsakomybei, gebėjimui atlikti sveikatos priežiūros paslaugų teikimo ir finansavimo funkcijas bei iš to atsirandančias galimybes. Analizė parodė, kad Lietuvos ir Vokietijos sveikatos draudimo veikimo principas ir tikslas yra panašūs. Tačiau galima teigti, kad sveikatos draudimo sistema Vokietijoje yra sudėtingesnė nei sveikatos draudimo sistema Lietuvoje, kuri šiuo metu yra vystymosi etape.
