The aim of the article is to address the most important issues concerning the contract for the provision of health services based on the analysis of the existing case law and views of legal doctrine. The contract for the award of contracts for health services has been regulated separately in the provisions of the Act on medical activities, and the scope of the subject, object and other necessary provisions of this contract have been specified therein. As a consequence, it should be assumed that an extra-code type of a named contract was created. The statement excludes the possibility of classifying it as a contract for the provision of services and applying it pursuant to Art. 750 of the Civil Code provisions on the mandate. It is only possible to apply the regulations of the general part of the Civil Code and general provisions of obligations.
