For less urgent health problems, it is usually appropriate to contact a family doctor or another healthcare provider.
Lithuania has both public and private healthcare providers. In both cases, patients may need to pay for services, depending on their health insurance status, the type of service and whether the healthcare provider has a contract with the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF).
Public healthcare services are generally covered by Compulsory Health Insurance (PSD) when a person is insured in Lithuania and receives covered services from a healthcare institution that has an agreement with the NHIF. This may include visits to a family doctor, specialist consultations, hospital treatment and emergency medical care. Some services may require a referral.
