This article presents a summary of the current status, of health Albanian system.The developing health care system ofundergraduate, postgraduate and continuous medical education in Albania and suggests opportunities for development andpartnerships that would help the country's medical education reform.

The intention of this corporation was to insurehardware equipment to support the software produced by HII.Since their system was designed in such a way that it served notonly to HII, but also to pharmacies in their everybody work, very soon pharmacists that previously didn’t want to procureequipment became our collaborators in improving the system. The HII received more than 17% of all health funds, with 8.5%coming from the state budget, 4.3% from employers and 4.4% from individual contributions. While the state remains the majorsource of health care financing, its contribution shrank from around 84% in 1990 to less than 60% in 1999 as other funding,especially out-of-pocket payments, increased.

Abstract

This paper identifies and addresses of the important factors underlying of the social and economical influences, the loss of theleadership roles and cultures—the sense of cultural inferiority prevalent among members of community, women, youth, minority groups.The paper also introduces with the leadership styles in Albanian condition and describes the influences of prejudice in this organization’sefforts to preserve and revitalize the Albanian intangible culture. Prejudice influences convenience or economic reasons. But moreoften, they abandon their culture and language in order to overcome discrimination. Social prejudice reduces quality and slows the flow.Social prejudice is a chasm that separates information from the people who need it. Many leaders are too proud to reach across and askfor it, instead, they will ask someone for their opinion on their side of the chasm. In the technology age, information is needed from thesource, not chain of command or someone’s theory. To stay competitive, work environments must be free of social prejudice and leadersmust be willing to cross social class barriers to seek information. In the Albania, it is not uncommon for members of dominant cultures, tolook down upon members of a minority cultural group, considering them as “second class” citizens. Projects are undertaken towardsovercoming the sense of cultural inferiority and instilling cultural pride among the young. In business, social prejudice has always been abarrier to the information. Leadership likes the feeling of its power while the targets of prejudice tolerate it.
