I have reorganized "History of the Romanian health system". As CaptainFugu suggested, that section has been reorganized in a chronological order, starting from the early 1700s, when the first doctors opened up doctors' offices. It then mentions the first hospital that was opened in 1703, and the list of hospitals that were opened in the 18th century. The article mentions vaccination campaigns (that started in the late 18th century), the breakthroughs made in the field of organ transplantation, and the attempted healthcare reform of 2012. Based on these grounds, I have removed the "history section needs reorganization" part of the template. The "Romanian doctors" is now a distinct section, as that topic has a wide history of its own.

There should be links to Collective documentary

The documentary "Collective" about the Collectiv fire/hospital disinfectant/ hospital director corruption scandal should have a section in this article in order to update what has gone on since 2015. There already is a Wikipedia article about the film itself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Noellegi (talkcontribs) 16:16, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The very first sentence in the article says Romania offers benefits of a universal healthcare system.

According to the wikipedia article, Universal healthcare [...] is a health care system in which all residents of a particular country [...] are assured access to health care.

I can not see how it can be said that Romania has universal health care, since only people that pay for a provate health insurance, or for which the employer pays public health insurence, are indured in this system (with some minor exceptions, like you are diagnosed with tuberculosis or other diseases with the potential to cause an epidemic, or emergencies when you arrive unconsios at the hospital). Even people that have insurance services that are aboeve basic may cost extra or they may be denied service if they don't pay appropriate tips/bribes.

So it would be appropriate to adjsut the first few lines of the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.187.191.48 (talk) 19:37, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Romania does not have a universal healthcare system

The very first sentence in the article says Romania offers benefits of a universal healthcare system.

According to the wikipedia article on Universal healthcare, Universal healthcare [...] is a health care system in which all residents of a particular country [...] are assured access to health care.

I can not see how it can be said that Romania has universal health care, since only people that pay for a private health insurance, or for which the employer pays public health insurence, are included in this system (with some minor exceptions, like you are diagnosed with tuberculosis or other diseases with the potential to cause an epidemic, or emergencies when you arrive unconsios at the hospital). [1]

Even for people that have insurance, services that are above basic may cost extra, or they may be denied service if they don't pay appropriate tips/bribes.

So it would be appropriate to adjsut the first few lines of the article.
