Family doctor and family nurse appointments for Ukrainian war refugees

On 31 December 2024, the agreement between the Health Insurance Fund and Confido Medical Centre for financing family medical care for Ukrainian war refugees will end.

From 1 January 2025, family medical care will be provided to Ukrainian war refugees on the same basis as Estonian residents. Information about family medical care in Estonia can be found here www.tervisekassa.ee/perearstiabi

The first point of contact for a person with health concerns in the healthcare system is a family nurse or family doctor. Every Estonian citizen, person living in Estonia on the basis of a residence permit or right of residence and foreigner temporarily residing in Estonia with health insurance can register with a family doctor and change their family doctor by submitting a written application. The contact details of family doctors with available spots can be found here.
