Business Excellence and Management, 2015, vol. 5, issue 3, 70-78

Abstract: Strategic management is undoubtedly one of the most debated concepts of general management, this being due to the success organizations around the world which have put it into practice have registered. More and more papers on the management of health facilities have come out, both internationally and nationally. However, in Romania, most of these papers skipped strategic management approach to healthcare and those that don’t, however, limit themselves to macroeconomic approach or describe the concept in general terms, without singularize it for hospitals. However, in the Romanian practice there is a progress in terms of concern for the strategic management of the health system, this being ascribed to the creation of uniform management standards for all hospitals in Romania, but also to the emergence of institutions responsible for training in health management. Accordingly, this paper aims to outline an overview of the current state of the strategic management practice in public hospitals in Romania, the information being useful to decision makers both at the microeconomic level, directly involved in hospital management, and at the macroeconomic level, charged with the overall health system management.
