The topic of this bachelor s thesis is healthcare financing in the Czech Republic. It predominantly focuses at the impact of regulatory fees introduced in 2008. The theoretical portion defines healthcare politics, its models as well as various ways of healthcare financing. The practical portion covers the issue that arose with the introduction of regulatory fees and especially aims at analyzing their impact at certain parameters of the healthcare market in the Czech Republic. The goal of this paper is to find out whether the aforementioned regulatory fees fulfilled their planned expectations, especially considering that the whole policy ended up being canceled seven years later. The analysis showed that its impacts were indeed positive and as predicted, which makes their cancellation questionable. This suggests that there must have been a different motive for the cancellation, because their effectiveness was demonstrable. The paper also contains a comparison to Slovakia, where regulatory fees were also introduced in the past and the development of their cancellation can be analogous in the Czech Republic. Analysis of certain parameters of the Slovakian healthcare market proved that the cancellation was not effective, because the observed parameters are slowly shifting back to their original values and the issue of healthcare overuse has also started reappearing.
