VZP (Všeobecná zdravotní pojišťovna - General Health Insurance Company) — the largest health insurer in the Czech Republic, code 111.
🆕 From January 2026 — no cash
VZP does not accept cash. You can pay:
- by bank transfer
- by card
- via QR code
- by postal money order (složenka)
Why VZP is a reference for amounts
VZP publishes the current amounts of contributions per year. The pages of other insurance companies often lag behind: for example, the ZP MV ČR page shows OBZP 2,808 CZK — this is the amount for 2025, while for 2026 the amount is 3,024 CZK.
Insurance company's duty
Like any insurance company, VZP is obliged under § 40 of Act No. 48/1997 Coll. to ensure you have access to services — including finding a doctor.
