The participants in this study comprises of 12 managers from Kind Saud Medical City with experience in healthcare management. A semi-structured interview method was used for the collection of the data. Constant comparative approach was used in the analysis of the interview transcripts by coding and analyzing participant's expressions in order to identify categories and themes related to human resource decision making in healthcare organizations. Results from the study reveal four core obstacles managers in KSMC face in making decisions regarding human resources. These barriers include organizational culture and structure which was considered as a core determinant hindering decision making, lack of authority was ranked second from participants' perspective views, third was lack of self-confidence in decision making, and lack of adequate knowledge and skills among managers. The highly centralized approach for HR decision making was found to be the core reason for these obstacles. Understanding the overall phenomenon 'highly centralized' healthcare system, and removal of identified barriers in the way of managers significantly alleviates the present situation by offering managers necessarily authority, encouraging self-confidence, and effectively making decisions that would enhance quality and address human resources issues.
