Summary/Abstract: The lack of data for many indicators and the existence of significant gaps in the availability and comparability of data is a problem of global interest, felt by authorities and agencies specialized in data collection, analysis and use. Their objective is to provide data and indicators of good quality, which will help to correctly inform the political decision-makers and to solve the inequalities in the field of health. Thus, this paper aims to provide clear and coherent solutions to a number of problems identified in data management in general and in the medical sector in particular. The added value of this paper consists in a case study, which presents an x-ray of the current situation of data quality through the analysis of metadata. The research methodology used in the paper includes a swot analysis on the quality of health data, using metadata from three sources corresponding to distinct levels of aggregation: National (Romania), European and Global.
