Medical treatment in Czechia: hospitals, waiting times and prices for visitors

Prices checked 27 October 2026 (Taipei time)

Hospitals in Czechia for international patients, by city

We list only providers with their own service for patients from abroad and a track record they publish: a university or teaching hospital, international accreditation, or large published volumes. Open a hospital for how to book and how soon it says it can see you.

How soon hospitals in Czechia say they can see you

These are each hospital's own words, not our estimate. “Booking” is how soon it says you can be seen, “Department wait” is a wait it publishes for one department, and “Reply” is how fast it answers an enquiry. Few hospitals publish waiting times by department; where none is published, ask the international office for a date in writing before you book flights.

Prices in Czechia by procedure

Each range covers only prices that match the procedure's unit (for example one MRI area, or one eye). Open a procedure for every line and what it includes.

Not listed: MRI scans, CT scans, colonoscopies, gastroscopies, health check-ups, heart check-ups, cancer screening packages, cataract operations, laser eye operations, dental implants, full-arch implant treatments, veneers, hair transplants, hip replacements and knee replacements. We did not find a published price in Czechia that we could verify.

Official figures and rules for patients from abroad

• Gennet states that under Czech law assisted reproduction is for heterosexual couples only, the upper age limit for women is 48 years and 364 days, and public insurance covers IVF only for women up to 39 years 364 days (provider's statement of the rule). rule

Planning a medical trip to Czechia

• Ask each clinic for a written, itemised quote and the appointment in writing before booking flights.
• Check that your travel insurance covers planned medical treatment; many policies exclude it.
• Ask for reports in English and images in a format your doctor at home can open. See how to bring your results home.
• Know who to contact if you have a problem after you fly home, and tell your own doctor before you go.
