The General Health Insurance Company (VšZP) has turned to the Constitutional Court of the Slovak Republic in a dispute concerning the tender for permits to operate emergency medical service ambulances. The tender concerned 328 station sites and dates back to 2019.
VšZP filed a constitutional complaint in which it objected to the conduct and decisions of the Council of the Public Procurement Office. The insurance company maintains that both the Council of the Public Procurement Office and the office itself made procedural and substantive errors in the course and outcome of the tender procedure. The complaint points to serious procedural and substantive shortcomings which, according to VšZP, led to incorrect decisions in this matter.
The relevant office and its Council have already issued decisions in this matter, which the insurance company, however, disputes as unlawful. The decision of the Constitutional Court of the Slovak Republic will depend on the examination of the arguments of both parties and their compliance with the constitutional order. This is a significant case concerning public procurement in healthcare, which affects the functioning of the emergency medical service on the territory of Slovakia.
