When we asked expats in Greece if healthcare and health insurance are expensive in Greece, they wrote...

"Healthcare and health insurance in Greece can be expensive. The cost of healthcare services, such as doctor visits and hospital stays, can be high, and the cost of health insurance can also be high. Additionally, the cost of medications can be expensive, and many people in Greece struggle to afford the cost of healthcare and health insurance," explained one expat living in Greece.

"The cost is reasonable under the IHC, private care varies, but in general is cheaper than UK I believe," said another in Paros, Greece.
