As a foreigner living in Bergamo, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Bergamo if they have access to public healthcare in Bergamo. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Bergamo, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Italy is generally considered to be of a high quality, with a wide range of services available. The system is funded by taxes and is free at the point of use for all citizens and legal residents. As a foreigner, you may be required to pay a fee for certain services, but the cost is usually much lower than private healthcare. The public healthcare system in Bergamo is well-regarded and provides a range of services, including general practitioners, specialists, hospitals, and pharmacies," remarked another expat who made the move to Bergamo, Italy.
