We asked expats in Hungary if they have access to public healthcare in Hungary. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...

"Yes, as a foreigner living in Hungary, you will have access to public healthcare. The quality of care is generally good, with a wide range of services available. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and is free for all citizens and legal residents. The system is divided into primary care, specialist care, and hospital care, with a wide range of services available in each area. The public healthcare system is generally well-regarded and is considered to be one of the best in Europe," said a member in Hungary.
