Parliament has decided on this law of the Czech Republic:
Compensation of persons providing medical services paid
(1) Health insurance companies shall pay compensation to providers of health services with which they have concluded a contract to provide and pay paid services under the Public Health Insurance Act and to providers of social services with which they have concluded a special contract under the Public Health Insurance Act (hereinafter referred to as "provider"), taking into account the costs and outages of the provision of the services covered by the CoVID-19 epidemic caused by a new coronavirus known as SARS-CoV-2 (hereinafter referred to as "CoVID-19 epidemic") in 2022 (hereinafter referred to as "compensation"). The compensation of a health insurance undertaking shall be paid by the provider in the context of the bill of health services paid by the health insurance company from public health insurance (hereinafter referred to as "the services paid ') provided in 2022.
(2) The Ministry of Health may provide by decree for the inclusion of compensation in the amount of compensation paid for the services provided in 2022, taking into account in particular the expected reduction in the volume of services provided in 2022 in the context of the COVID-19 epidemic; the method for including compensation in the amount of compensation for the services provided in 2022 includes the setting of compensation values for the points, the compensation amount for the services paid and the compensation regulatory restrictions.
(3) By 31 May 2023, the provider and the health insurance undertaking may agree on the method of including compensation in the amount of compensation for the services paid in 2022 in a different manner from the order referred to in paragraph 2 ("compensation agreement"). In accordance with Article 17 (9) of the First, Fifth and Sixth Public Health Insurance Act, an agreement on compensation for a health insurance undertaking shall be published mutatis mutandis; the compensation agreement shall take effect on the date of such publication. An effective compensation agreement shall be used in the procedure provided for in Article 2 instead of the decree referred to in paragraph 2 to the extent that it has been concluded.
Billing of health services paid by the health insurance company in 2022
(1) The accounting of the paid services provided in 2022, including compensation, shall be carried out by the health insurance company for providers providing only outpatient services or services provided in the patient's own social environment by 30 June 2023 and for other providers by 31 August 2023.

(3) The health insurance undertaking shall carry out the accounts referred to in paragraph 1 on the basis of the calculations referred to in paragraph 2 resulting in a higher financial entitlement of the provider.
(4) The amount of compensation corresponds to the difference between the financial claim of the provider calculated under this Act and the financial claim of the provider under the Public Health Insurance Act, without taking into account the negative amount of compensation.
