Health policy plays a special role in this process as it is responsible for the health and life of citizens.The aim of this article is to describe Polish health policy and the changes that have taken place in it during the COVID-19 pandemic. The work was created during the pandemic, in the period when the next wave of infections was expected in the autumn-winter season. For this reason, the data and conclusions concern the epidemiological crisis.
