Emergency medical attention

What

Medical emergency services provide outpatient care to the necessary extent as a follow-up to the services and organisation of Rapid Emergency Medical Services, in the event of a sudden change in health or the worsening of an illness occurring outside the regular opening hours of outpatient facilities. Medical emergency services are not intended for ordinary investigative or curative procedures which can be requested during a medical facility’s regular daytime opening hours.

How

You can transport yourself to the medical emergency service if your health permits it. If you experience a sudden change in your health and require urgent medical care, call for an ambulance by dialling 155 or 112.

Good to know

A regulatory fee of CZK 90.00 is charged for the use of medical emergency services. This fee shall not be charged if the investigating doctor providing emergency services finds that the condition of the policyholder requires hospitalisation.
