Description The article focuses on the univerbizates (one-word lexems that have been formed by fusion of multi-word lexical units), that are used in the sphere of public health care. We study the univerbizates in the text of the Czech National Corpus and we classify them according to: a) meaning; b) word-forming procedure and word-forming structure; d) frequency; c) stylish differentiation. We have observed about 70 % i univerbizates in the texts of public care, that are derived from adjectives, 70 % of them were formed by suffixes -ák and -ka. About 40 % of the univerbizates used in the sphere of the public health are homonymous with other words, for example kožař (physician; man working in the leather industry); žluťák (Žlutý kopec – Yellow Hill; žluté triko – yellow T-shirt), Huntington, Alzheimer (names of the diseases and of the physicians who described them).
