We asked expats in Czech Rep if they have access to public healthcare in Czech Rep. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Czechia, you will have access to public healthcare. The public healthcare system in Czechia is generally considered to be of a high quality, with a wide range of services available. The system is funded by taxes and is free at the point of use for Czech citizens, although foreigners may be required to pay a fee for some services.
