Research Reports, 2012, vol. 1-2, issue 14-15, 92-104 Abstract: The paper presents a?form of analyzing the efficiency of the third party payer. The analysis includes the characteristics of the National Healthcare Fund and presentation of examples of the areas of competition in the following relations: payer - he healthcare provider and payer ?– beneficiary (patient). The idea of introducing price competition in the area of healthcare provision is treated rather cautiously. Hence no unequivocal answers are given. Certain doubts are highlighted and seve- ral questions are asked. It is specifically suggested that there exist prerequisites for increasing the potential of the National Healthcare Fund. Thus it is vital to undertake actions aimed at identification of dysfunctions and formulation of relevant changes both at the level of the institution as well as in its environment. Potential solutions concerning changes in the functioning of the payer have to be reviewed.
