The highest quality of coverage won't cost more than 3,000 euros a person/year (2017) and most retirees are paying only 2,000 euros annually. This includes dental and eye care, surgeries, private hospital room, unlimited doctor visits and tests," commented one expat who made the move to Lisbon, Portugal.

"Healthcare and health insurance in Lisbon can be expensive, depending on the type of coverage and services needed. Public healthcare is available to all citizens and residents, and is generally less expensive than private healthcare. Private health insurance can be costly, but it can provide more comprehensive coverage and access to a wider range of services. Additionally, some employers may offer health insurance plans to their employees, which can help to reduce the cost of coverage," remarked another expat in Lisbon, Portugal.
