Malta Hospitals

Health Care System Malta and Gozo

There are many Malta hospitals, health centres and clinics on the Maltese islands, which do a great job at providing a quality health care service.

You can find both public and private hospitals in Malta. They provide your usual basic health care services as well as specialized medical services.

Since Malta joined the European Union in 2004, all EU citizens who possess the European Health Insurance Card can use the services provided by Malta hospitals, including emergency services.

Moreover, Malta has a reciprocal agreement with the United Kingdom and Australia relating to the provision of medical services to UK and Australian citizens. The Ministry of Social Policy provides details of these agreements on their website here.
