The diploma thesis titled "A health state assessment in the Czech Republic and in states of the European Union" is a theoretically conceived work that offers comprehensive information on assessment activities focused on the sickness insurance in the Czech Republic and other five selected countries of the European Union. A choice of the selected states has been affected both geographical and historical linkages to the Czech Republic as well as differences in the social security systems. The most attention has been devoted to the assessment activities under the sickness insurance of the Czech Republic. For other countries there has been particularly given a course of the health state assessment due to the illness, pregnancy and maternity or care for a household member. The aim of the thesis is to analyze the process of the health state assessment in the Czech Republic and a subsequent comparison of those results with a situation in the selected countries of the European Union, namely the Slovak Republic, Poland, Austria, Great Britain and France. To identify differences and to focus on strengths and weaknesses of the systems or to suggest a more efficient solution within the Czech Republic. The results of the thesis show that in all researched countries a medical certificate of the incapacity for work is the legal condition for an acquisition of claims to sickness benefits and the procedure for an obtaining of the certificate is similar in all six countries. It is the examination and health state assessment by a physician authorized by a body administering the social security in the given country. Despite differences of the social security systems in individual countries, a connecting element for the claim to the benefit is the participation on the social insurance. This thesis may also serve the general public as a summary of findings on the issue of the health state assessment under the sickness insurance in the Czech Republic and selected countries of the European Union and for a better orientation in the given systems.
