As a result of the changes in health care system the managers need to continuously gain new qualifications. They are expected not only to provide more effective management methods, but also to minimize the costs and achieve the health care units goals. It is obvious that only highly skilled managers with high level of qualification and broad knowledge concerning economics, finance, medical law, human resources management are able to meet the requirements of rapid changes in health care sector. Research showed that there are significant changes in the profile of health care managers. Currently among managers there are less persons with medical background and more women.
