Abstract: | The paper deals with possible types of health care financing and the impact of regulatory fees on health care. It responds to questions like "Why does health care cost so much? What benefit do I get from spending my money on books or art or cars or clothes if I am death?" Sick and pain, confronted with the possibility of death, people would be willing to spend almost any amount of money to get their health back. Health care costs so much because people are willing to pay so much for it. The conclusion includes an example of the situation before and after the introduction of regulatory fees in the Czech health system and an analysis of their impact. |
