Summary/Abstract: The Republic of Moldova ranks unfavorably in most of the indicators that measure the health status of the population, which denotes both the existence of some deficiencies in the health care system in the Republic of Moldova, as well as the relatively increased financing needs of this system. Moreover, the share of health expenditures in GDP is the highest in Moldova compared to the countries in the region, with public expenditures covering only half of the total expenditures. Certainly, such a high share of health expenditures in GDP, and especially of private expenditures, can reflect both the very high financing needs and the inefficiency of public expenditures. Our country is facing serious problems in the functioning of the health protection system. This has negative implications for the health of the population, the quality of human capital and the confidence of citizens towards the future of this country. Consequently, the inclinations for emigration are intensifying, and corruption in the health system is becoming more and more rampant.
