The Impact of Corruption on the Performance Management of European Health Systems

Summary/Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the corruption and its effects on health system performance. Through an detailed analysis there were been identified the components of the corruption, the factors that influence it, the elements that reveal the hidden corruption, the aspects that help to reduce or combat it. It has been discovered the level of the corruption in the european area and also for the health system in Romania. The research methodology consisted in applying the unifactorial regression model and also in the multifactorial regression model. I did correlations between the selected variables: the corruption perception index, GDP per capita,the effective employment of the population, life expectancy at birth, out of pockets, public health expenditure. For this research paper I had used data provided by Transparency International and the World Bank. The results obtained confirmed the assumptions: the increased number of active population, the increased level of life expectancy, the increased public expenditure, determines a low level of corruption. Also they were identified and limits for some of the variables chosen.
