Abstract: Healthcare systems are integral to the well-being of societies, serving as the backbone for delivering health services and improving public health outcomes. The healthcare system in Romania is a critical component of the country's socio-economic framework, with its performance directly affecting the health and development of the population. While there have been improvements in certain areas, challenges such as underfinancing, human resource issues and inequitable access to care remain. Artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare represents a significant shift towards more efficient, precise, and personalized medical care. It encompasses a range of applications from diagnostics to treatment recommendations, patient engagement, and administrative tasks, aiming to enhance the quality and accessibility of healthcare services. The purpose of this study is to analyze the healthcare system in Romania using data on healthcare infrastructure (medical units), medical staff, population, hospital beds and investments. Additionally, it aims to organize ideas regarding the use and perspectives for the development of artificial intelligence in the Romanian healthcare system. A spatial distribution of indicators is created, highlighting the most significant areas in the Romanian healthcare system. Healthcare systems are essential for providing healthcare and promoting public health. Effective health systems promote economic growth, ensure equitable access to healthcare, and respond to public health emergencies.
