Abstract: The low level of health expenditure per capita and the lack of efficiency within the Romanian health insurance system call for the creation and implementation of certain additional means medical risk management and healthcare financing. Therefore, in 2011 a bill has been drafted introducing an additional, private management structure for the health insurance system. Although, in theory, such a measure would have proven viable, existing inconsistencies have led to the postponement of this legislative reform for an undetermined period of time, during which the financial burden is still borne by the state budget.
