The healthcare system in Cyprus

Cyprus, like most countries, has private and state medicine. Please note that the services of private hospitals and clinics are expensive. Also, it costs to contact public medical institutions on a paid basis.

Since March 2019, they have launched the GESY national health care system in Cyprus, to which Cypriots contribute 6.5% of their salary. Accordingly, one can use GESY only in public medical institutions, which are much inferior in quality to private clinics.

If there is a desire and necessity, one can purchase premium-class insurance in Cyprus. It costs about 200 € per month, but it provides an extended range of medical services - non-emergency dentistry, various surgical interventions, and expensive treatment. You can choose a clinic and a doctor, including private medical institutions.
