"I salute the fact that the Peterle Report approaches and emphasises the urgent need to take active measures to recruit and retain health professionals. According to the World Health Organisation, the migration of 2% of the physicians from a country should be a code red signal for the authorities. In Romania, 4% of Romanian physicians requested papers to leave and work abroad and the same percentage was registered in 2007 as well. Therefore, not only did we cross the level considered to be a code red threshold, but we also reached double that percentage. From the beginning of the year up until 1 September 2008, 957 persons asked the Romanian Physicians’ College (CMR) for moral integrity certificates which will allow them to work abroad. It is obvious that a health system cannot function without physicians. I believe that this is a worrying phenomenon not just for Romania but for all of Europe and the absence of qualified individuals who can treat European patients must preoccupy the Member States and the Union to the highest degree."@en1
