Abstract

Different forms of partnership in the hospital sector exist depending on the degree of integration between the individual participants, the types of partners, their goals and motives for cooperation. The theory describes many conceptual frameworks of the strategic alliance formation process. The purpose of the publication is to analyze some of the existing models and as a result to present a model of creating hospital strategic alliances. This framework integrates the strategic process of cooperation with the particular features of healthcare management. Some of the elements in the model are specific and derive from the characteristics of the Bulgarian healthcare system. The emphasis in its application is the creation of a successful strategic alliance.
