Abstract: The international migration of highly qualified human resources, especially of physicians from Romania is experiencing an ever more alarming growth because of its size and, in particular, of its implications. Adapting to a more and more unpredictable socio-economic environment, the progress achieved in terms of technique and technology, along with the liberalization of the commodities, services and capital markets have generated a lot of new opportunities, as well as new threats for the organizations all over the world. Our research aims at highlighting to what extent the international migration of physicians from Romania can have a strong and severe impact on the prospects of Romania’s sustainable economic development. At the end, we formulate a number of proposals, which, in our opinion, could decrease the exodus of physicians to third markets.
