It is important for Ukrainians staying in EU countries to have health insurance. Since insurance not only provides financial protection, helping to avoid high costs for medical services, but also ensures access to medical care in accordance with European standards. However, there are a number of other important reasons that determine the need to take out insurance. We talked about them in our material.
