[A few thoughts about health system transformation in Croatia].
The aim of this article was to make reader more familiar with the shift in health and society thinking which occurred during the last fifteen years. Authors are describing changes in macro environment and their impact on health and health needs in Croatia. The notion that behavior is greatly influenced by social context in which people lead their lives is demanding a new approach to health and health system policy development. The key questions they elaborate are: How to make health system aware of these changed health needs and How to make health system more capable to respond to these unmet needs? Authors are discussing two alternatives--Health system reform and health system reorientation advocating the second one as the way to go.
