Frequently asked questions
Which dentist in Ostrava has a VZP contract?
190 of the 197 places whose contracts we know have a VZP contract for this specialty. They are marked as contracted, and each shows its ČPZP and VoZP contracts too. We don’t show the other insurers’ contracts yet (OZP, ZPMV, RBP and Zaměstnanecká pojišťovna Škoda); check those with the practice.
How do I register with a dentist in Ostrava?
Pick a practice with a contract with your health insurer and arrange it with them, best by phone. When they take you, the doctor fills in a registration form you sign. They may refuse you only for lawful reasons: taking you would exceed a reasonable workload (full capacity), or they have no contract with your insurer. They must give you the reason in writing.
How do I change my dentist?
Your GP, paediatrician, dentist and gynaecologist (the “registering” doctors) can be changed once every 3 months under the public health insurance act. Just register with the new one; they ask the previous doctor for your records.
What if no dentist in Ostrava will take me?
Contact your health insurer: it must make insured care available within set travel and waiting times, and it will help you find a doctor who takes you. Also try practices a bit further from home.
How we calculate it, and sources
We count places where care is given (practices, polyclinics, hospitals), not individual doctors; one place can have several specialties. The register doesn’t say whether a doctor takes new patients.
Contracted = the practice has a contract for that specialty with a health insurer and insurance pays for the care; we name the insurers from the lists published by VZP, ČPZP and VoZP. No contract = no insurer has a contract with it and you pay yourself. A practice without a label works with an insurer that doesn’t publish a list (OZP, ZPŠ, ZPMV or RBP); check the contract with them.
