Germany's healthcare system features statutory health insurance (GKV) covering about 90% of residents, ensuring access to preventive services. This system provides regular health check-ups based on age and gender to promote early disease detection. Adults from 18 to 35 receive a general health check-up. Women have access to annual pap smears from age 20 and breast examinations starting at age 30, with additional screenings for chlamydia until age 25. These services are guided by healthcare providers and insurance for the population's well-being.
In Germany, nearly 90 percent of the population, over 74 million individuals, are covered by statutory health insurance, with private health insurance covering the remainder.
