contents <p>Czech healthcare is financed through a system of universal and compulsory health insurance based on solidarity. In last years, due to the covid-19 pandemic, there has been an unprecedented expansion of fiscal space for health services through increased payments for state-insured individuals. The article aims to highlight this increasingly important part of the Czech health insurance companies’ revenues and the possible implications for the shape of the Czech health system and for ’he country's future budgets. The significant increase in financing health services through tax redistribution is gradually shifting the Czech health system back toward a national health system model. The existence of (several) health insurance companies is thus slowly but surely losing its key importance thanks to the described mechanism of constant increase of direct payments to the state.</p>
