Summary/Abstract: The present text intends to draw attention to the need for an efficient ethical model that should regulate the activity and resource allocation in the healthcare system, and particularly in granting access to healthcare to families with high poverty rates, as well as in caring for children. Thus, the paper focuses on an ethical perspective using the idea of the social responsibility of organizations and especially of the state as an organization that takes responsibility in the social field. From an ethical point of view, the social responsibility principle eliminates the divergences between ethical responsibility and financial responsibility that may appear in establishing public health policies and in the construction of an ethical model for service providing and resource allocation. The intention of the paper is not to propose a model but rather to emphasize the need for creating an ethical model in the Romanian public health system starting from the National Strategy and the Report of the presidential committee for analyzing and elaborating public health policies in Romania.
