Abstract

Health is a large resource consuming domain and in which the results are materialized in the
long term. On the other hand, there are a variety of health systems in the world, but none are perfect and
cannot be considered a model. In the recent decades, health systems have generally been marked by the
sharp increase in costs, which has not been accompanied to the same extent by the improvement of health
outcomes. The problem of insufficient resources and the understanding that health is, in fact, an investment,
in the sense that better health of the population determines a better productivity and lower social support
expenses from the state, have brought health to a central place in the sphere of politics. This was followed
by the transfer of the set of tasks and competences exercised by the Ministry of Health to the local public
administration authorities. In this paper we have presented some of the problems faced by the public health
units of local subordination.
