    You may want to also consider private health insurance.

    Many Brits still take out private healthcare insurance as there are additional benefits over Portugal state healthcare system, notably:

    – You will get access to better facilities
    – Reduced waiting times
    – On-demand access to a network of private hospitals on top of Portugal’s state system
    – Ongoing expenses, such as GP appointments and prescriptions will be covered
    – Less language issues when receiving care

    I hope this helps.
