As a foreigner living in Warsaw, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Warsaw if they have access to public healthcare in Warsaw. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"As a foreigner living in Warsaw, you will have access to public healthcare if you are a legal resident and have registered for public health insurance. The public healthcare system in Poland is funded by the National Health Fund (NFZ) and provides a range of services, including primary care, specialist consultations, hospital treatment, and emergency care. However, the public healthcare system in Poland is known for long waiting times, limited availability of specialized treatments, and sometimes outdated facilities. Many foreigners and locals opt for private healthcare services, which offer shorter waiting times and better facilities, but at a higher cost. It is essential to have valid health insurance, either public or private, to access healthcare services in Poland," said a member in Warsaw, Poland.
