| Description: |
Any person residing in Denmark (and registered in the National Register) is entitled
to public health care and receives a national health insurance card
(sygesikringskort), without having to apply for it. This public health insurance
grants free of charge or discounted access to a range of treatments and medications
(direct settlement), without further reimbursement. The health service is
administered by the counties, which issue the insurance cards, run by the hospitals
and has concluded agreements with general practitioners, specialists and dentists
about payments. |
