Abstract

In this paper an approach is achieved integrated health system in Romania in terms of performance indicators and center with responsibility for patient concerns. Practical study highlights the characteristics differentiated the Romanian system of state health system and private health system. Using BSC method as a tool to obtain an image of the reality of the health system in Romania as well as the source for the formulation of future strategies. The implementation of medical ethical principles through a management of medical ethics will presuppose first, an adaptation of health system to patients’ needs, respect for patients’ rights, which come from the directive concerning cross-border medical assistance. To conclude ethical principles in health care must be promoted since only due to these principles people will benefit from patient-centred care, will be provided respectful and responsive health care and above all will actually benefit from their right to health care.
