Serbian Association of Employers – Sector for Medicine and Health gathered the owners of the private clinics and pharmacies from all over Serbia in order to form Expert team of private employers in medicine sector. Through its activities in public media this team initiated the campaign for reform of health care system and its adjustment to EU standards. This reform implies unification of private and state health care sectors into single health care system, introduction of national health accounts, controll over the money held by the Fund for Obligatory Health Insurance and introduction of electronic health history system. All these would make spending health insurance money more transparent and possibly bring foreign investors in health sector, but above all it would bring private employers from this sector into better position on the open market.
