"In Finland, healthcare services are provided by the public sector and are free of charge for all citizens. Healthcare services are comprehensive and include preventive care, primary care, specialist care, hospital care, and mental health services. The Finnish healthcare system is based on the principle of equal access to healthcare services for all citizens, regardless of their income or social status. The Finnish healthcare system is also highly decentralized, with local governments responsible for providing healthcare services in their respective regions. In addition, Finland has a strong focus on preventive care, with a range of health promotion and disease prevention initiatives in place," remarked another expat in Finland.
