Abstract: This paper shows that social security, as the main health care system, is based on principles aimed at the compulsory coverage of all citizens, who are allowed accessibility to a certain package of services. The financial balance between the amount of contributions received and expenditures must be respected in order to perform the medical services. The independence of health insurance organisms in administration of funds, which are collected and used in the alternative, is ensured. The importance of private health insurance is emphasized, as well as the option for the private health care system that allows access to a wide variety of services within primary and secondary treatment, and makes many social groups to prefer private health care sector and to join complementary, additional or substitute private health insurance.
