Bulgaria's Council of Ministers has adopted a decree providing access to medical care for refugees arriving from Ukraine who have the status of temporary protection. Their health insurance rights are in force from the date of granting this status and are at the expense of the state budget.

For underage Ukrainians and for women over the age of 63 and for men over the age of 65, health care is provided for the duration of the temporary protection granted to them. For other Ukrainians, the healthcare rights are valid for 90 days.
