What are healthcare services like in Croatia?
We asked retirees if they have access to good medical care in Croatia. They wrote...
"Croatia has a public healthcare system that provides free or low-cost healthcare services to its citizens. Healthcare services are provided by a network of hospitals, clinics, and health centers throughout the country. Primary care is provided by general practitioners, while specialized care is provided by specialists in various fields. Croatia also has a number of private healthcare providers that offer a range of services, including medical check-ups, diagnostic tests, and treatments. In addition, Croatia has a number of health insurance companies that offer coverage for medical expenses," remarked another expat who made the move to Croatia.
"Medical care is well organised with English speaking doctors all around. The big cities have quality hospitals, the smaller towns have at least a first aid. Medical care is below average in price, and cheap compared to the USA. (Guess Obama needs some more support on that issue)," explained one expat living in Dubrovnik, Croatia.
