As a foreigner living in Denmark, will I have access to public healthcare? What is it like?
We asked expats in Denmark if they have access to public healthcare in Denmark. And, if they do have access, what is it like. They wrote...
"Yes, as a foreigner living in Denmark, you will have access to public healthcare. The healthcare system in Denmark is highly rated and is considered to be one of the best in the world. It is a universal system, meaning that all citizens and legal residents are entitled to free healthcare. The system is funded by taxes and is managed by the government. The healthcare system in Denmark is comprehensive and covers a wide range of services, including preventive care, hospital care, mental health services, and long-term care. The quality of care is generally high, and the wait times for appointments are usually short," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Denmark.
