Abstract

The inadequate quality of healthcare services infrastructure is one of the key issues identified in the National Development Plan of Romania 2007-2013, whose solution was pursued through the use of structural and cohesion funds. The allocation of funds from the European Regional Development Fund, from the State budget or as a contribution from the beneficiaries, meant for Romania a sign of commitment to solving this problem. However, the insufficiency of funds, the problems encountered especially in terms of the human resources deficit in this area, have made the need for improving the medical system to persist within the 2014-2020 programming period. This paper presents the situation of the financed projects implemented with the financial support of Regional Operational Programme 2007-2013. The available date are presented using the statistical analysis. The comparative results are presented for each reagion.
