Healthcare in Atlanta

The healthcare in Atlanta is renowned for its high standards. Atlanta is home to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the city is served by a large network of hospitals, specialised centres, and clinics. Many of these providers offer virtual healthcare services, with online appointment scheduling and patient portals. 

Some of Atlanta's major healthcare providers include Emory Healthcare, Grady Health System, and Piedmont Healthcare. Pharmacies are also easily found in the city, and many are open 24/7.

The cost of healthcare in Atlanta is higher than the national average, so those moving to the city should ensure that a comprehensive private health insurance plan well covers them. The cost of your health insurance plan will largely depend on your level of coverage, how many dependents are covered on the plan, and other factors such as your health status and lifestyle habits.
