Subject The article deals with the issue of adapting the public health service to the market economy conditions.
Objectives The paper aims to develop an integrated assessment methodology based on the resulting standardized index, taking into consideration the formed system of relative indicators.
Methods Using the methods of economic, system analyses and mathematical statistics, we researched the current state of the health care industry in three groups of countries: the Group of Seven, CIS countries, and BRICS countries.
Results We propose our own integrated assessment technique based on the resulting standardized index, taking into consideration the formed system of relative indicators that take into account a controversial and multidirectional character of countries. We considered the different relevance of evaluation system indicators using the method of expert ranking indicators (Fishburn's point-estimation rule). Given the performance data of the World Bank, we held a ball score of the health-care industry using the resulting standardized index.
Conclusions and Relevance The proposed methodology for the assessment of the resulting standardized health index in different States allows defining the country, implementing an effective strategy for the management of the health care industry. The methodology developed can be used not only to evaluate the resulting standardized health index worldwide but also to assess this indicator in a single country.

Keywords: health care system, standardized measure, resulting standardized index
