Cross-Border Healthcare in the Czech Republic and its Relationship to Other V4 Countries
Original language description
Currently, the cross-border healthcare still represents a marginal part of the Czech healthcare system's performance. Compared to the total healthcare expenditures in the Czech Republic that accounted for CZK 299.9 billion in 2014, the costs of the treatment provided to Czech patients abroad constitute mere 0.27%, and the (subsequently refunded) costs of the treatment provided to foreign patients in the Czech Republic are 0.24%. The aim of the paper is to analyse the available data of the cross-border healthcare reimbursement in the Czech Republic and its relationship to other V4 countries. In 2016, there were total costs of foreign citizens' healthcare from the V4 countries in the Czech Republic about CZK 419 million for patients from Slovakia, about CZK 39 million for patients from Poland and about CZK 5 million for patients coming from Hungary. On the other hand, the costs of patients from the Czech Republic in Slovakia reached CZK 364 million, about CZK 57 million in Poland and just CZK 2.5 million in Hungary. The crossborder healthcare reimbursements play some role between the Czech and Slovak health systems as well as between the Czech and Polish healthcare systems. On the other hand, the relationship between the Czech and Hungarian healthcare systems is not in this term significant.
