## Description

Croatia's central government health authority (Ministarstvo zdravstva). It runs the statutory procedure for establishing a healthcare institution: the applicant must request from the Ministry a decision (rješenje) confirming that the founding act complies with the law before the institution may begin work.

## Scope

Authorisation of healthcare institutions to be established and commence operation (issuing the founding rješenje). Individual physician licensing is handled by the professional chamber, not the Ministry.
