Austrian Health System
The Austrian Health System is a universal healthcare system that provides comprehensive medical services to all residents. Funded primarily through a combination of employer and employee contributions, it ensures access to a wide range of services, including hospital care, outpatient treatment, and preventive services.
Healthcare in Austria is organized into regional health insurance funds, which manage the delivery of services and reimburse healthcare providers. The system emphasizes quality care and patient choice, allowing individuals to select their doctors and hospitals while maintaining a focus on public health initiatives and preventive care.
