Abstract
- To evaluate the performance of health care systems and their impact on the health of the population, several types of measurements were used, of which we quote: assessing the economic efficiency, medical efficiency, social acceptability or organizational structure assessment. Regular assessments are focused mainly on measuring the results of the hospital activities, of the various categories of physicians, especially family physicians, of the health system as a whole, in terms of numbers and types of services provided, and less on health impact assessment. Within this context, the concept of „avoidable deaths‟ has been introduced. This paper aims at highlighting the avoidable deaths tendency in Romania, based on their assessment for two years, 2002 and 2007, and based on the list of diseases used by Leveque, A, Humblet, PC Lagasse, R. in the atlas made for Belgium.(1) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
