European health systems

European health systems vary across countries but generally aim to provide universal access to healthcare. Many use a mix of public and private funding, with taxes or insurance premiums covering most services. Public systems, like in the UK, offer healthcare funded by the government, while others, like in Germany, use mandatory insurance. Quality and access can differ, but the focus is on ensuring that all citizens receive necessary medical care. Many European countries prioritize preventive care and public health initiatives to improve overall population health.
