PRIVAMED

Nemocnice PRIVAMED is a hospital in Plzeň that provides inpatient and outpatient care across internal medicine, neurology, rehabilitation, surgery and orthopaedics, cardiology, dialysis, radiology, and clinical biochemistry and microbiology laboratories. Its services also include a continuing care centre with 24/7 medical coverage, a polyclinic, a pharmacy, and a women's health centre. The website lists 420+ beds, 10,000+ hospitalisations and 120,000+ outpatient examinations per year.

The hospital is paid for care by Czech health insurers, with which it states it holds contracts with all insurers in the Czech Republic; apart from hotel-type extra services, care is free of charge to insurance clients. Its patients are residents of Plzeň and the wider western Bohemia region, and it also positions specialised units for patients from across the region. Recruitment pages cover doctors, nurses, paramedics, laboratory staff, sanitary staff, kitchen delivery staff, and student scholarships.

The hospital was founded in 1992 and is the oldest member of the PRIVAMED Group, a family-owned network of private healthcare facilities; it was formed through the privatisation of a former municipal hospital on Kotíkovská street in Plzeň. The website states it has 700+ employees and that it is gradually renovating its buildings and adding pavilions, including a polyclinic building on the Severní předměstí side of the site.
