Abstract

In this article the author briefly pointed out the important tasks of medical rescuers resulting from the current legal status and presented the changes planned in this regard. As the essence of this article, the author has made the rights of medical rescuers, but they also paid attention to the financing of the benefits provided by medical rescue teams, which also required the issue of health care services financed by public funds, in particular the role of the National Health Fund. The most important in the context of both existing and proposed changes seems to be the approximation of the status of medical rescuers to doctors or nurses, midwives, mainly due to the obligation imposed on them to keep professional secrets or keep medical records.
