  1. The Norwegian system is universal and funded by the government. If you just want a general practitioner they're usually private but you pay like 30$ pr visit to them. And your health care expenses including traveling and medication can't exceed a certain amount, I think something like 300$ in a year. Once you pass that sum the government covers 100% of all costs. Hospitals are government owned and run. Clinic are a mix of private and public and there's a constant back and forwards about those being covered by the government or not. Some parties wants to ban making a profit on health care, childcare, education etc. If you can prove that you need a specific treatment and can't access it in our public healthcare system and one of our doctors refer you to it you can get coverage not just by privat healthcare in Norway but also abroad, including the US.
