General Information for HIV Patients Seeking ARV Treatment in Poland

Dear Patient,

Welcome to Poland. Below is essential information regarding HIV treatment options available to those staying in the country:

 

  1. Free ARV Treatment for All
    Anyone residing in Poland is entitled to free-of-charge antiretroviral (ARV) medication, regardless of their insurance status. This treatment is provided through specialized HIV outpatient clinics located across the country.
  2. Additional Costs for Uninsured Patients
    • If you do not have health insurance in Poland, you may need to cover the costs of doctor’s visits and diagnostic tests.
    • The National AIDS Centre advises uninsured individuals to consider purchasing voluntary health insurance through the National Health Fund (NFZ). This provides full access to Poland’s public healthcare services.
  3. Health Insurance for Foreigners
    • If you are in Poland legally and insured through an employer or university, you can access healthcare, including HIV-related services, like Polish citizens.
    • Insured individuals can visit any of the ARV therapy centers listed on the National AIDS Centre’s website: HIV Clinics in Poland. Appointments should be booked in advance by phone.
  4. Voluntary Health Insurance
    • The NFZ offers voluntary insurance options, which include:
      • Monthly cost for individuals: 646 PLN (subject to change).
      • Monthly cost for non-EU students: 55.80 PLN (subject to change).
    • For up-to-date details, visit the NFZ website: Voluntary Insurance – NFZ.
  5. Special Circumstances
    • Free-of-charge ARV treatment is also extended to:
      • Refugees and individuals with tolerated status.
      • Inmates in penitentiary institutions.
  6. Private Treatment Options
    • ARV drugs and HIV diagnostic tests are available privately.
    • Certain ARV medications can be purchased at pharmacies with a valid doctor’s prescription. Note that the costs of these medications are not reimbursable.

Important Notes
The costs of diagnostic tests or doctor’s visit fees for uninsured patients are not covered. For further details about HIV treatment in Poland, you are encouraged to consult the clinic nearest to your location.

 

Best regards,
The National AIDS Centre in Poland
