Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Helsinki?

Answer this Question

When we asked expats in Helsinki if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Helsinki, they wrote...

"Healthcare and health insurance in Helsinki, are generally not considered expensive, especially when compared to countries like the United States. This is because Finland has a comprehensive public healthcare system that provides affordable and accessible services to all residents. The cost of healthcare is largely subsidized by the government through taxes, making it more affordable for individuals. Additionally, many employers offer private health insurance as a benefit, which can further reduce out-of-pocket expenses for employees. However, there may still be some costs associated with healthcare, such as nominal fees for certain services or medications, but these are typically quite reasonable. Overall, healthcare and health insurance in Helsinki are considered to be of high quality and reasonably priced," said another in Helsinki, Finland.
