Abstract
Introduction: Health disparities, health inequalities or health inequities are terms frequently used as synonyms, but with different content or meaning. Methodology: We have tried first to tackle the definitions problem and than through a secondary analysis of national published data to assess health disparities within the marginalized populations of Substance dependent people. Discussions: Analyzing health inequities in populations with potentially important impact on public health can offer targets for the actual health reform project in order to improve gaps between Romania and the other UE countries.
