Peter and Daniela together with Roman Mužík and Beáta Benková are the authors of an article that was published in Acta Oeconomica.
In the article, the authors are trying to explain the differences in COVID-19 case fatality rate (CFR) in 22 European countries by their type of organization and performance level of their healthcare systems. The CFR is taken here as the most important indicator since it measures the ratio between COVID deaths and COVID cases.
The basic questions that the authors were trying to answer, are:
1. Can mortality from COVID-19 be explained by the type of organization of the health system?
2. Is there a relationship between the COVID mortality rate and the performance of the health system as measured by the European Health Consumer Index (EHCI)?
3. Are some of the EHCI sub-scores more relevant in explaining the V4 performance difference compared to others?
