title: [Financing regional health services. Problems and possible solutions].
abstract: The purpose of this paper is to highlight the fact that the present financial system of the Health Regional Services is constraining their management and development possibilities and thus, the System designed in the General Law of Health (Ley General de Salud); moreover, it is, hindering the development of the Autonomous Communities themselves, as the financing of these services is a hard weight to carry, within the own financing process of the Autonomous Communities. We just try to demonstrate there is no reason whatsoever that may justify the present financing procedure of the Health Services already Transferred to Government of the Autonomous Communities. We deem it is necessary to change such model, in order that principles of sufficiency, autonomy and interterritorial solidarity become effective. We are also of the opinion that we are now living the adequate moment to overcome these problems, as it is our must to renegotiate the application, for the five-year period 1992-1995, of the principles under the Organic Law for the financing of the Autonomous Communities.
