Physicians in the Czech Republic: a demographic perspective

Original language description

Physicians can be viewed as a relatively homogeneous group, but one that has its own internal specifics that may be affected, for example, by the demographics of physicians. Basic differences in gender and age structure by major medical specialty are covered relatively frequently in the literature. Rarely, however, do we see analyses on the number of physicians in relation to their average workload, which varies according to age, gender and specialty. It is possible to monitor these differences using the database of the main Czech health-insurance company, which has information on almost all the physicians in the Czech Republic. The findings can be used, for example, to better plan territorial access to health care, which generally ignores these aspects.
