Health is essential for everyone. Saxony-Anhalt has a wide network of healthcare facilities, both in urban and rural areas. Medical care is guaranteed in all regions and offers security. 

In Germany, it is important to belong to a health insurance fund or to take out membership. Our regional advisors at the WelcomeCenter will be happy to explain the options available, the services covered by health insurance funds, the cost of contributions, and answer any other questions you may have.  

The guide "Health for All" from the Federal Ministry of Health provides an initial overview of the German healthcare system. It is available in many languages. 

Mental health is also of central importance for well-being. For example, anyone who has experienced persecution or violence, has problems with drugs, or is in a crisis situation can get professional support. You can find various counseling centers and support services in our overview of psychosocial contact points in Saxony-Anhalt.
