Law
of 19 March 1947
on medical advice.
The Constitutional National Assembly of the Czechoslovak Republic decided on this law:
(1) In particular, the right of every citizen to health protection is ensured free of charge by state advisory healthcare.
(2) The advisory health care provided for in this Act is preventive (protective) health care, consisting of the professional investigation and monitoring of the health status of citizens, the detection of the social health conditions of their life, the protection of their health by advice, education and mediation of the correction of identified social health defects and the necessary care, as well as the fight against the emergence, spread and consequences of diseases, particularly social.
(3) The health care centre shall be equipped with an establishment within which the doctor and other trained staff shall carry out the tasks referred to in paragraph 2. It is not for medical advice to carry out medical treatment, except in the case of bulk free treatment, in agreement with social insurance holders.
(1) Consultative health care is organised and implemented by the public health administration, in close cooperation with the social insurance holders and with the help of the coordinating authorities of the counties and counties, under a single health care plan, issued by the Ministry of Health in agreement with the Ministry of Social Welfare and drawn up by a special coordinating body in the Ministry of Health. These coordinating bodies will be established by a government regulation.
(2) Voluntary organisation of social health care is involved in the performance of these tasks under the supervision of the Ministry of Health under the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health in agreement with the Ministry of Interior and Social Welfare and published in the Official Journal.
(1) The counselling of the population of the administrative district is carried out by the district national committee.
(2) In order to carry out counselling, the District National Committee, assisted by a public-law social insurance provider, shall establish a national health institution as its executive establishment, led by a doctor, in which it shall include existing medical advice; for each part of the administrative district, it may set up turnovers or local counselling.
(3) The Institute of National Health is also the executive establishment of the District National Committee for the exercise of its responsibilities in other matters of health.
(4) In the performance of the tasks of advisory care for mothers and children, the Institute of National Health is also a subsidiary of the relevant "county care for young people" provided for in Section 1, paragraph 2 of the Act of 19 March 1947, No. 48 Coll., on the organisation of youth care.
(5) Details of the internal arrangements and activities of national health institutes and their tasks under paragraphs 3 and 4 shall be laid down by the Government by regulation.
(1) With the exception of the assets of the holders of public social insurance, the State is a movable and immovable property which exclusively or at least primarily serves health advisers (§ 1 (3)), which has been incorporated into the Institute of National Health (§ 3 (2)) and is owned by their existing operators. The District National Committee shall indicate by the scale of the property to which the measure referred to in the first sentence applies and determine the date on which the property is transferred to the administration of the State. The transfer of real estate and library rights to the Czechoslovak State will be registered by the library court in public books on a proposal from the District National Committee, referring to this law.
(2) The State shall compensate for immovable property acquired under paragraph 1. The amount of compensation shall be determined by the Ministry of Health, in agreement with the Ministry of Finance and the Supreme Office, on the basis of a proposal from the District National Committee to carry out the necessary inquiries. The refund shall be equal to the general price of the property on the day of its acquisition by the State, as determined by the District National Committee in accordance with the official prices on that date and, failing that, by an official estimate. From the price thus determined, the liabilities on that date shall be deducted from the library property secured. The compensation is reduced by the aid granted to the owner by public funds for the acquisition and repair of the property.
(3) Moved assets are taken over by the State without compensation. The State shall be liable for the obligations arising from the acquisition, repair and maintenance of the property to the owner of the property before the date of application of this Act, without prejudice to the further liability of its predecessor up to the amount of the general price of the property taken over on the date of acquisition.
(4) Staff of medical advice to date will be recruited into the service of the State. As a general rule, the newly recruited staff will be included in the relevant categories of civil servants, while fully counting the time spent in corporations, associations or associations involved in social health care, from the date of the start of their pension insurance in this service. The Government shall determine the evaluation of other previous periods of service by means of a regulation. According to the regulations in force, these staff will be allocated by the Ministry of Health in agreement with the Ministry of Interior and Finance, in Slovakia also in agreement with the relevant delegates. The staff thus recruited shall constitute a separate personal condition. Their personal office is the competent national committee in Slovakia responsible for health care; the central office for their personal affairs is the Ministry of Health. Staff instructions for these staff shall be issued by the Ministry of Health in agreement with the Ministry of Interior. These provisions do not apply to "county youth care '. The Ministry of Health and Social Welfare will agree to transfer these employees to the services of national health institutions.
The costs of national health institutes shall be reimbursed from the budget chapter for the Ministry of Health, unless another person is obliged to contribute to them under the applicable rules.
The Regional National Committees complement each other with their advisory health care facilities and may associate themselves with the establishment of a Joint Institute of National Health for its implementation. In agreement with the Ministry of the Interior, the Ministry of Health shall adapt the details by means of directives published in the Official Journal.
(1) The Ministry of Health may, after hearing the relevant regional and regional national committees in Slovakia, associate the national health institution with the public ambulance or the public hospital for a transitional period.
(2) For reasons of local effectiveness, or for the need for health research, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of National Affairs, the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Health, the testing of new labour techniques or the training of professional staff, may set up its own institutes and the tasks of advisory healthcare which would otherwise be carried out by national health institutions, namely the Ministry of Health, after hearing the participating national committee (the national health authority), the national committees and the medical authority after hearing the participating regional national committees.
(1) The Ministry of Health, through a health authority in Slovakia, may, on a proposal or after hearing of the institutions in which national health institutions or institutes are set up, in charge of their tasks (Sections 3 and 7 (2)), order compulsory medical examinations of all the population or groups thereof, or of the population of a given district, on the one hand, and the necessary records of the health status of the population in those institutes, which it declares in the Official Gazette, Slovakia through the Health Board also in the Official Journal, and issue the necessary directives.
(2) Legal representatives of children and persons entrusted with the care of children shall ensure that children undergo the medical examinations referred to in paragraph 1.
(3) The authorities for which national health institutes or institutes in charge of their tasks are set up (Sections 3 and 7 (2)) shall issue the orders necessary for carrying out the tasks referred to in paragraph 1 and may issue the orders necessary for carrying out the instructions of national health institutes or institutes in charge of their tasks, both by general regulations and for individual cases, in particular by requiring medical treatment. The General Regulations shall be published in the usual manner.
If, in any of the institutes referred to in Section 8, paragraph 1, there is no other way to provide professional care, the authorities may, after hearing the relevant medical chambers and the relevant trade unions, provide medical and childcare services to practitioners in their constituency in order to act as remuneration for the period necessary in the Institute. This shall be taken into account in order not to prejudice the provision of other necessary professional care.
The action and omission which is prejudicial to the provisions of this law or to the provisions laid down by them shall be punishable by the District National Committee, unless it is a more criminal offence, as an administrative offence of up to 50 000 CZK or by a prison (lockdown) within three months. At the same time as the fine, in case of imperfections, a replacement prison sentence (lockdown) shall be imposed in accordance with the rate of guilt within three months.
The legal proceedings, documents and official acts necessary for the organisation of advisory health care under this Act, as well as the corresponding entries in public books, shall be exempt from the fees and charges for official acts in administrative matters.
(1) Since the entry into force of this Act, health advice (§ 1) can be established only as part of national health institutions.
(2) Health advice to date continues its activities in facilities used by them in the same way as until they are incorporated into national health institutions (§ 3 (2)).
(3) The provisions of this Act do not apply to advice on occupational medicine. The Government shall determine by a resolution whether and under what conditions such advice is associated with national health institutions.
This Act shall take effect on the day of its publication; It shall be implemented by the Minister for Health in agreement with the Ministers involved.
