However, because so many Romanians are working abroad but still counted as being in Romania (3-4 million) lew definitive conclusions can be drawn about coverage. Notwithstanding this, data show that the proportion of the population covered is higher in urban areas (94.9%), compared to rural areas (75.8%). There are initiatives to improve access for Roma communities, for example, the Roma health mediator programme and a new project to create community health care centres are expected to provide better coverage for all vulnerable populations with restricted access to health care.
