Summary: The quality of medical care in Lithuania is generally considered to be good, although it may not be as advanced as in the United States. Emergency services are generally reliable and efficient, and ambulances can be called by dialing 112. The response time is usually quite fast, and the medical staff are well-trained and experienced.

How are healthcare services Lithuania?

When we asked expats and global nomads about the quality of medical care in Lithuania, they replied:

"Lithuania offers a wide range of healthcare services, including primary care, specialist care, hospital care, and preventive care. The public healthcare system in Lithuania is funded by the government and is free for all citizens. The quality of public healthcare is generally good, with modern facilities and well-trained staff. Foreign residents are also able to access the public healthcare system, although they may need to pay for some services. Expats in Lithuania can use the public healthcare system by registering with the local municipality and obtaining a health insurance card. This card allows them to access the same services as Lithuanian citizens, although they may need to pay for some services," wrote one expat.

"Understand that health care in Lithuania is hit and miss, depending on who you are and where you live - health care providers here are often poorly paid, poorly motivated, and irresponsible," commented one expat who moved to Lithuania.
