Central & East European Health Policy Network

Our mission is to influence the health care system change in CEE countries for the benefit of the consumer. CORE VALUES: >>Innovation>> We support innovative solutions for the benefit of the consumers. >>Transparency>> We support transparency in performance of medical providers and health insurers so that consumers are able to make choices based on reliable information. >>Individual responsibility>> We support individual responsibility in each health status – either healthy or ill. We believe that also ill people can contribute by their responsible behavior to improvements in their health status. We believe that adequate financial responsibility of people is necessary to protect their sovereign position as consumers. >>Fair competition>> We believe that fair competition is a key driving force leading to better products and services in health care to fulfill consumers preferences. >>Fair access>> We believe, that each individual has a right for fair access to health care services. Fair access means consumer choice of provider, scope, place and time of the treatment that is clear of corruption and stress from refusal and lowering the dignity of consumers. >>Public Money Protection>> We support the financial sustainability and efficient utilization of the public finances. >>Local Focus with CEE experience>> Each member possesses a high knowledge of the local health care system. We believe that local people are the best drivers for change in their countries. Together, as a network, we can share experience and learn from each other
