When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Bulgaria, they replied:
"Healthcare services in Bulgaria are provided by both public and private institutions. The public healthcare system is funded by the government and is available to all Bulgarian citizens. The quality of public healthcare in Bulgaria is generally good, with a wide range of services available. Foreign residents are able to access the public healthcare system, although they may need to pay a fee for some services.
