Description The paper deals with the issue of the universality of access to health care in Central and Eastern Europe. It shows that universality is still the constitutional principle for the majority of countries. However, it also documents that, in reality, the universality of access to health care disappeared in the region after 1989. Only three countries – the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Slovenia are close to the aim to provide their citizens with a universal access to health care; however even these countries show apparent limitations.
