The national health laws, reimbursements by CJAS all Romanian laws in this regard are constantly changing. Health care is privatized?  Affordable healthcare remains in Romania? Everything is called into question. ADAM  movement offers a solution to these questions. Patients are assured of a good, non-corrupt healthcare. The staff of doctors, nurses, etc. are sure of their wages. ADAM signs  the contract with the CJAS (regional health insurance fund) and pays the wages (even if the CJAS pays late). The whole project can not be copied,  the financial effort for the infrastructure: buildings and equipment is too large. Therefore, there is now CLS launched in Romania these are local health councils that offer the best possible health care in consultation with municipalities, local medics and motivated volunteers. All this is coordinated by TON(The open network for community development)

 

ADAMSlatina-Timis started as a pilot project and received international recognition.

VVSG (Association of Flemish Cities and Municipalities) submitted among others the project Geel - Slatina-Timis. Six "best practices" within Europe were finally selected and given the opportunity to make a stand.  Within these six "best practices", 4 were chosen to present their project verbally and to participate in a round table during the session on twinning.  More than 1,400 participants, spread over 36 countries participated in this international conference

In the justification of the choice we could read:

Six examples around twinning which contribute significantly to social inclusion are proposed. They were recognized as inspiring and motivating projects that promote social inclusion and European cooperation and thus serve as an example of active European citizenship.

 

As a result of this recognition, an invitation was sent to participate in the final day of the four-day training program "Town twinning: a valuable tool for the municipality and Europe organized by the" Part Platform European Twinning Netherlands "in The Hague on July 4, 2007
