Subject. Labor productivity in healthcare. Objectives. To substantiate the possibility of using unit economics metrics in measuring and understanding labor productivity in healthcare. Methods. The methods of system analysis and the study of literature sources in an electronic database were used. eLIBRARY.RU. The words "unit economics" and "unit economics in healthcare" were used as search metrics. Results. The general and special features of unit economics are analyzed in relation to traditional approaches to evaluating the activities of medical organizations using the example of medical and economic analysis. The possible directions of using the studied management technology in this industry are outlined. The possibility of using unit economics indicators (using the break-even point as an example) in assessing labor productivity has been scientifically substantiated. On this basis, its author's classification is proposed. Conclusions. The results of the study may be in demand by organizers and economists in the field of healthcare to use the labor productivity indicator as a metric to ensure the sustainable functioning of medical organizations in the process of fulfilling government assignments.
