Short description
(German)
Considerable efforts have been made since 1999 to improve Kosovo?s health system. With the support of international assistance many primary health care centers, hospitals, and other specialized health facilities have been rehabilitated. In spite of these improvements, however, numerous shortfalls continue to affect the proper functioning of the health care system. These are mainly related to improvements of public health financing, lack of adequate management of health services, obsolete medical equipment, and insufficient supply of essential drugs, resulting in inadequate treatment and alleviation of medical conditions. In order to address the situation, the Ministry of Health has adopted the Health Sector Strategy 2010-2014 and the respective Action Plan. The new management of the Ministry of Health is committed to initiate comprehensive reforms of the health system, starting with a revision of the legal framework, health financing reforms and a reorganisation of the healthcare system and Ministry of Health structures.
