Efficiency in general medical practice in the Czech Republic
Vajskebr, Filip ; Votápková, Jana (advisor) ; Korbel, Václav (referee)
This bachelor thesis analyses technical efficiency of general practitioners in the Czech Republic. It exploits unique dataset that comprises information about health care activ- ities of 107 general practitioners that operate in 79 different municipalities over the period 2015-2017. First, Principal Component Analysis was utilized to deal with high dimension- ality of medical outputs. Second, two stochastic frontier regression models were employed, one of which accounts for heterogeneity of the sample by including efficiency effects vari- ables. Even though both models estimate mean technical efficiency to be approximately 83 %, efficiency ranking of individual general practitioners differs across models. Included efficiency effects have statistically significant impact on technical efficiency. In particular, general practitioners situated in rural municipalities are less efficient, higher competition in a municipality discourages efficiency and general practitioners providing health care to adults are more efficient. 1

Brskovská, Soňa ; Vrzáček, Petr (advisor) ; Rivola, Pavel (referee)
This dissertation is based on the possibilities of improvement of obesitological care as delivered by general practitioners. The theoretical part is dedicated to marketing, obesitology and to the lesser known problem of gynoid obesity. The practical section describes the quantitative research into GP's delivering adult care in the Prague area, central Bohemian area, and amongst the clients of Centrum Preventivní Medicíny. The needs of GP's in terms of this type of care are examined. The main needs are elementary and further education, information about the problems of gynoid obesity, and the need for GP's to co-operate with obesitological institutions, including centres of gynoid obesity therapy. At the end of the thesis is a suggested list of products for Centrum Preventivní Medicíny. Also suggested is an algorithm of care for gynoid obesity for use in GP's practice. Key words: Obesity, Gynoid Obesity, Lipoedema, Komplex Decongestiv Therapy, GP, Algorithm of care.
