As a foreigner living in Perugia, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Perugia if they have access to public healthcare in Perugia. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Perugia, 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 based on a national health service, which is funded by taxes and provides free or low-cost healthcare to all citizens. In Perugia, there are several public hospitals and clinics, as well as a number of private healthcare providers. The public healthcare system is generally well-regarded and provides a range of services, including general medical care, specialist care, and emergency services," wrote a member who made the move to Perugia, Italy.
