Abstract
The ‘Healthcare Standards in Europe’ document (2013) makes it clear that ‘access to healthcare is an essential element of human dignity and human rights, and guaranteed by the European Union's Charter of Fundamental rights'. Thus, everyone has the right to access preventive healthcare and the right to benefit from medical treatment [1]. While this premise can be satisfied only if the standard of healthcare is the same in all of Europe, at present healthcare status indicators such as life expectancy and morbidity and mortality of many communicable diseases are heterogeneous [2].
