Journal Title: Studia Universitatis Petru Maior. Series Historia - Year 2016, Vol 16, Issue
Abstract
The phenomenon of migration of the work force in the medical field has known an increasing in the last years. The health workers leave their home countries looking for better working conditions and career opportunities abroad, in west, in countries with a better health system. The source country also loses its investment in the education of health care professionals, as well as the contributions they would have otherwise made to the health care system. In destination countries the benefits are likely to be more obvious: available positions are filled without any investment in the cost of educating the health workers. In summary, the benefits for the recipient country mirror the losses for the source country, consisting of access to additional human capital with little investment. To resolve the problem we have to know the main causes and consequences for destination and origin countries too.
