Czech Republic - Healthcare
In what situation can I claim?
Healthcare is provided to anyone insured in the Czech Republic who falls ill or requires medical care. The system is paid for from health insurance.
This includes EU nationals and their family members who are ensured in Member States outside the Czech Republic. Persons working or residing in the Czech Republic are eligible for full healthcare. Those in the country for a short period of time (tourism or for business) are afforded mergency care in the case of an illness or accident.
Healthcare is free of charge, if:
* the beneficiary is insured with a health insurer;
* the healthcare facility has concluded a contract with the given health insurer;
* the examination or procedure is defined in the list of medical procedures reimbursed by the insurance.
