Romanian perspective on health reporting.
Since 1990 the Romanian healthcare system has been crossing a stage of dramatic change. The healthcare reform, which is in progress, has structural, organizational and functional implications at the country level. The Ministry of Health is now preparing for the big IT changes. A Healthcare Management Information System (HMIS) will assure in the very next future automate data collection on health status of the population and on resource allocation and consumption. It is not an easy way towards the use of the Data Warehouse concept and On Line Analytical Processing technology for creating and accessing the data repository. Therefore we decided to integrate existing applications related to health system indicators until the HMIS will assure a high performance analysis and data interpretation.
