ABSTRACT
In all developed countries and societies of the world health care is considered as a special good, the allocation and distribution of which must meet specific regulations. Those regulations should guarantee that everybody has access to appropriate health care. The patients' willingness and ability to pay should not dictate how much and which services they receive in the case of illness. The following objectives are common for health care systems around the world:
Equal access to health care for everyone;
Cost-efficient production of health services;
Effective medical care and patient management;
Costcontrol of public expenditures for medical services.
