Healthcare in Vienna

If you’re moving to Vienna, you can rest assured that your healthcare needs will be well taken care of, as Austria is home to one of the best healthcare systems in Europe.

Thanks to tax contributions, everyone living and working in the city is entitled to healthcare services in Vienna. As a result of this and the excellent standard of public healthcare in Austria, most people don’t take out private health insurance policies.

That said, if you have the option of private healthcare as part of your employment package, you should definitely take advantage of it, as it allows access to more services and shorter waiting times.

Vienna’s pharmacies are well stocked and readily available. They can be found along any major shopping street or mall or near a hospital.

Below is a list of prominent hospitals in Vienna.
