• The President of UOKiK has completed preliminary proceedings concerning the supply of IT systems to hospitals.
• He did not find any violation of antitrust law by the examined enterprises.
• He will continue to monitor the market and respond to any irregularities.

The President of UOKiK has completed the preliminary proceedings regarding the supply and implementation of hospital IT systems. After conducting a thorough analysis of the collected evidence, UOKiK did not confirm the suspicions of tender collusion or any other competition-restricting practices.

The proceedings concerned the activities of Asseco Poland, Comarch Healthcare, and Bestprojects. In December 2021, searches were carried out at the premises of those companies. The aim of the activities was to investigate whether any unlawful agreements restricting competition had been made in the tender procedures for supplying IT systems to healthcare facilities.

– The analysis of the collected evidence did not show that the examined companies violated the provisions of the Competition Protection Act. We will continue to monitor the market for IT systems for hospitals and address any irregularities – says Tomasz Chróstny, President of UOKiK.
