Abstract		The distinctiveness of management of a university psychiatric hospital which has the status of a public health institution is manifested in the following ways: Distinctive features and characteristics of managing service provider organizations compared to those whose operational results involve tangible products; Distinctive features of management which originate from its role as a regional hospital and a tertiary research and educational institution in the field of psychiatry, with special importance for the Republic of Slovenia as a whole; Distinctive features of management that are defined by the social and legal framework of operation of public health institutions and their special social mission. This paper therefore discusses the specific theoretical and practical findings regarding management of service provider organizations from the viewpoint of their social mission and significance, as well as their legal organization, internal structure and values.
