metadata.value: This paper aims to analyse the implementation of public-private partnership in the healthcare
  sector as a way to use private financing and expertise to achieve public policy goals in Albania.
  The study consists of an overview of the four public-private partnerships in the healthcare sector
  and the detailed analysis of major charateristics of two of them. The healthcare sector as a study
  object was chosen due to the implemented reforms aimed to improve the public health system,
  and the quality of service. The case study is based on the data collected from the analysis of the
  contracts signed between the parties, reports, interviews and the documents on the management
  of these contracts. The research also relies on secondary sources of information focused on
  legislation and other government legal acts. The article highlights the need to adopt a long-term
  strategy in the field of healthcare as well as applicable standards of monitoring of the implementation
  procedures. During the COVID-19 pandemic time, the implementation of these contracts
  became even more important for a the country where the contracts were treated as a way to
  improve the quality of public services. A number of offered recommendations in the paper may
  encourage further research in this field of study.
