[Modern health care systems in industrially developed countries].
The present paper characterizes the health care systems in several chosen capitalistic countries with developed industries. The health care systems are referred to in USA, Sweden, Japan and Great Britain. Mentioned countries are now able to subsidize their public health care with 6.5 to 11% gross national products and about 1,000 dollars for 1 citizen a year in average. The health care tends to be provided generally from governmental sources, though in lesser extent in USA, being still covered there with almost 50% from national budget. Nowadays a certain trend is manifested in providing better health care as well as health status of population without rising costs. This was notably achieved in Sweden. In industrially developed countries, no straight relation has been found between the cost-expenditure of the health care and the level of health status achieved as measured with the use of population health characteristics. The extent of health investments is directly dependent of country's economical level and that of national budget which is created there.
