Saska Popova
; Medicinski fakultet, Sofija
Sažetak
Discussing the range and quality of health care and the position
of medical ethics in Bulgaria, the authoress underlines the
process of radical social realignment which can be observed in the
circumstances of transition of BUlgarian society along the following
two lines: a) in the change of the governmenfs health insurance policy
and b) in the emergence of new models of health care based on
the renewal of private practice. The society's global health problems
that have been brought about by a decline of the population's demographic
status, an increase in chronic and degenerative illnesses,
migration, poverty, environmental pollution etc., are not being adequately
dealth with by the health policy. However, the self-awareness
of individuals strengthened by democratization has initiated resistance
and demands a change of situation. Within this context, the
importance of medical ethics is growing, and should be, according to
the authoress, given much greater attention by health workers.
