Methods and methodology. As a methodological basis of the study conducted in this article, a set of economic methods of statistical analysis was used. Results. To solve the tasks aimed at improving the quality of medical services, the authors used the data of a sociological survey conducted by them. On the basis of the results of the sociological research, as well as on the basis of the results of content studies of publications on the subject matter considered in the article, the authors proposed to change the paradigm of regulation of the healthcare sector, as well as the paradigm of managing the activities of medical institutions. The study revealed that at the present stage of market relations that Russian society has entered it is necessary to actively introduce effective mechanisms and programs aimed not only at the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of cancer patients, but also at their subsequent integration into active social and labour life.
