Summary/Abstract: This article analyzes the experience of European countries in creating a united medical space. The united medical space should be formed on the basis of human-centeredness, bioethics and be a key medical standard. States systematize health care legislation and implement and comply with international law. A united medical space must be formed on the basis of anthropocentrism. The united medical space should concentrate on the performance of public and private health care facilities to fully realize and ensure patients' rights to health care. The patient must be the goal of medical reform. Medical care provided to patients should be affordable and high quality, funded by public or private insurance companies. The only medical space in European countries is to facilitate the patient's access to a medical card, medicines, vaccines, quick access to medical care. However, as analyzed from the experience of Germany, Italy, Austria and France, the question of the priority of medical care remains open. Health care reform measures are assessed not only by short-term budget savings for the population, but also by their ability to promote health and generate health benefits for the entire population. It should be noted that with the help of telemedicine, artificial intelligence will improve and develop the field of health care, the quality of medical care, the attitude to medical workers.
