Which healthcare system for each country?
- Understanding healthcare system around the world
- Healthcare differences across countries
- What to expect from healthcare across different countries.
Depending on where you live, study, or travel, your healthcare coverage will vary significantly. The Global Health Security Index (GHS) evaluates healthcare systems in nearly 200 countries based on:
- Medical infrastructure
- Political and environmental risks
- Public health system stability
The map (see upper) displays the level of medical infrastructure to determine whether you’ll receive proper treatment locally — or need medical evacuation for certain conditions.
In countries with limited medical infrastructure, having international health insurance is crucial. But even in countries with solid systems, you won’t be covered as a non-resident — making insurance essential to avoid excessive medical costs.
What health coverage should you choose? Did you know? A serious medical issue abroad can cost over €50,000, especially in countries like the USA, Canada, China, or Singapore. Insurance ensures you’re covered for real health issues, such as infectious diseases or accidents requiring hospitalization.
