Acceso a una asistencia sanitaria de primera clase en la UE

La asistencia sanitaria es gratuita o está muy subvencionada en la mayoría de los países de la UE

Under EU law, European citizens visiting for short periods can receive basic and emergency care with a European Health Insurance Card.

Therefore, with a Lithuanian passport, if you unexpectedly fall ill during a temporary stay in another state of the European Economic Area or Switzerland – whether on holiday, a business trip or for a study – you will be entitled to any medical care that you need. You have the same rights to health treatment as people in the country you are in.

With Lithuanian citizenship, you and in certain circumstances, your family are entitled to the same social security benefits as nationals of the country you work in. These rights cover sickness and maternity benefits, disability, old-age and survivor’s benefits, benefits payable for accidents at work, occupational illness, death, and unemployment, as well as family allowances. You cannot be excluded from benefits on grounds of nationality, for reasons of residence, or for any other discriminatory reasons.
