References
My employer notified me to take out health insurance for my wife. So I took out Exclusive plan for my wife, and I did well. Not long after arriving in the Czech Republic, my wife became pregnant and, thanks to the health insurance, she was provided with health care throughout the pregnancy, the subsequent birth and post-natal care for our baby. We didn't pay anything, our insurance company paid everything.

My school required me to be insured during my studies at VŠE University. I needed it quick and cheap, therefore I chose basic plan and everything was done online.

As a self-employed expat in Prague I had a basic health insurance, however as someone diagnosed with insulin resistance, my medical expenses, treatments and checkups became expensive. Thanks to Filip, I was offered Exclusive plan with special discount and now everything is free including the dentists.
