Are healthcare and health insurance expensive in Budapest?

Answer this Question

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

"Healthcare and health insurance in Budapest, can be considered relatively affordable compared to other European countries and the United States. The country has a universal healthcare system, which is funded through taxes and provides coverage for most medical services. However, some residents may choose to purchase private health insurance for faster access to specialists and private facilities. The cost of private health insurance varies depending on the coverage and provider, but it is generally more affordable than in many Western countries. Additionally, the cost of medical treatments and medications in Budapest is typically lower than in other European capitals," remarked another expat who made the move to Budapest, Hungary.
