The Norwegian National Health Service

The Norwegian National Health Service provides universal healthcare to all residents of Norway, funded primarily through taxes. This system ensures that everyone has access to necessary medical services, including hospital care, general practitioners, and specialist treatments, without direct charge at the point of use. The government oversees healthcare planning and resources, aiming to maintain high-quality services across the country. While some private healthcare options are available, the public system is designed to prioritize equitable access and comprehensive care for all citizens, promoting overall public health and wellbeing.
