Abstract

. This paper focuses on the healthcare field and finding out how busy healthcare is in selected European countries, with a focus on the Czech Republic. The aim of this paper is to identify the level of healthcare in the Czech Republic and to compare it with selected countries of the European Union before COVID-19. The healthcare of the Czech Republic is evaluated on the basis of determined basic indicators. It is compared with the other seven European countries with a similar level of GDP per capita like the Czech Republic. Hence, the analysis of this paper is focused on the Czech Republic, Estonia, Spain, Italy, Cyprus, Lithuania, Malta, and Slovenia. Data of the selected indicators are from Eurostat. Among them, the state of medical doctors in hospitals, nurses in hospitals, available beds in hospitals, curative-care beds in hospitals, and healthcare expenditures by all providers and hospitals was included. This paper presents the level of healthcare in the Czech Republic, which is not the worst, based on selected basic indicators and their comparison with other countries. The healthcare for citizens is highly important, and a healthy population is also essential for the economic stability of the entire economy. But if there is no quality healthcare and the healthcare is overworked, it is not good for society.
