Danish Health System
The Danish Health System is a publicly funded healthcare system that provides universal coverage to all residents of Denmark. It is primarily financed through taxes, ensuring that citizens have access to necessary medical services without direct charges at the point of care. The system emphasizes preventive care and primary healthcare, with general practitioners serving as the first point of contact for patients.
In Denmark, healthcare services are organized at both national and regional levels. The Danish government sets overall health policies, while regional authorities manage hospitals and local health services. This structure aims to ensure equitable access to high-quality care across the country.
