How are healthcare services in Slovakia?
When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Slovakia, they replied...
"Healthcare services in Slovakia are provided by both public and private institutions. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and is available to all citizens and foreign residents. The quality of public healthcare is generally good, with a wide range of services available, including primary care, specialist care, hospital care, and preventive care. Expats in Slovakia can use the public healthcare system, but they must first register with the local health insurance provider. Once registered, they can access the same services as Slovak citizens, including preventive care, specialist care, and hospital care. Expats may also be able to access private healthcare services, depending on their insurance coverage," explained one expat living in Slovakia.
