Abstract

The collection, allocation and distribution of public resources for the health sector in Romania and beyond is an ongoing challenge and concern for governments. In this regard, this paper aims to answer the following question: how does human resources budget increment contribute to the quality of health services in Romania? The research is based on some specific external public audit methods, which identify risks and vulnerabilities related to the above-mentioned aspects, but also analyzes the resources allocated for this purpose in terms of the 3Es (efficiency, effectiveness, economy). The study aims to synthesize the ideas on this topic over the scientific literature and current legal regulations or under development, strategies, public health policies in Romania.
