The Greek national health system is operated by the Social Insurance Institute (I.K.A). You must obtain a health booklet from your local IKA office as soon as you start work. The booklet has to be presented on all visits to a doctor or hospital.

The Social Insurance Institute (IKA) is the largest insurance body in Greece and covers more than half the population.
