Identified  problem   Some  of  the  greatest  challenges  in  the  Romanian  health  care  system  are  drug  shortages  and  stock-­‐outs.  From  ordinary  painkillers  to  lifesaving  drugs  for  HIV/AIDS,  cancer,  hepatitis,  and  tuberculosis,  and  even  morphine  to  ease  the  pain  of  the  dying,  drug  stock-­‐outs  are  occurring  across  Romania  

Solution   This  project  will  create  an  electronic  system  to  monitor  stock-­‐outs  of  drugs  across  the  country.    A  website  in  Romanian  and  English  will  be  created  which  will  allow  users  to  report  shortages  of  drugs  in  their  hospitals,  communities  and  judets.  The  system  will  also  include  a  mobile  phone  web  application  that  will  utilize  GPS  data.  A  blog  and  interactive  maps  will  display  the  data  to  the  public  which  will  then  be  reported  to  the  Romanian  Ministry  of  Health,  national  and  international  organizations,  thus  ensuring  transparency  and  accountability.  This  system  will  be  used  by  doctors,  nurses,  patients  and  their  families  and  NGOs  from  all  over  the  country.  

Information  about  the  team   This  project  is  a  collaboration  between  Romanian  Angel  Appeal,  The  Union  of  Organizations  for  People  Affected  by  HIV/AIDS  (UNOPA),  and  The  Coalition  of  Patients'  Organizations  with  Chronic  Diseases  from  Romania  (COPAC).
