The Quality Of Health And Education Services – Imperative Feature Of The Modern Economy

The investments carried out within the health and education fields have represented “the strength core” necessary for any country progress, and simultaneously, the way any developed nation has proven that is concerned on ensuring the quality of human capital and implicitly, the long term development. In many countries of the world, such services have been greatly provided and financed by the state. Considering this part played by the state, many economists, and not only, have been focusing upon the relationship between the public expenditures on education and health, as well as the economic growth, but also on the efficiency of the public expenditures, and respectively on the consequences induced by the public expenditures over those sectors. Taking into account the above mentioned issues, one might notice that an increase of wages or financing in the administrative field, associated to the health or education, will not be implicitly and immediately be reflected into the improvement of quality in people’s health or education, or in generally, in human capital (such reflection is certain, but it will occur in time, since the period on training a generation is about one decade and a half). There is a trend on evaluating the efficiency in terms of output1 and not outcome, as result of the quantitative approach that underlies to work remuneration in the public system, or in other circumstances, on unfairly redirecting of funds towards other groups of interests. One should see that analyzing the efficiency depending on the outcome is more suggestive, since it detects both the quantitative and qualitative issues, as well.
