摘要：The Israeli public health system is a complex,important,and operationally complicated system.The scope of its operations and its annual turnover are massive and it encompasses an enormous number of professional personnel with various skills,some of whom are hard to replace.Hence,senior managers in the public health system are posed with a major management and professional challenge.As a result of the current state of affairs,in which senior managers enjoy unlimited terms of office,there is no retention of high quality human capital in the public/state healthcare system and promotion opportunities are few,with little turnover in the higher management ranks of the state-run system.The current paper examines the advantages and disadvantages term of office limits have for senior managers in the state-funded healthcare system,and argues that the main purpose of specifying terms of office for these jobs is to improve the organization's performance.The aim of this article is to examine the perceptions of senior management role holders in the public health system regarding terms of office arrangements and their implications for senior managers in the hospitalization system.The proposed research design includes mixed methods design,which involves a first phase of qualitative interviews to get explanations about the researched phenomenon,followed by a second phase of quantitative data collection and analysis that builds on the first qualitative phase [1].This article will present the qualitative phase: Six in – depth interviews with senior management role holders in the public hospitalization system conducted in the center of Israel.The results of the study provide a clear image showing the positive and negative aspects of term of office arrangements in the Israeli Healthcare system.
