In Israel, healthcare is universal and available to everyone. The healthcare system is funded and run by the government, with the help of national health insurance. This means that Israeli citizens and residents are entitled to nearly complete coverage of their healthcare costs.

The largest medical center in Israel is the Sheba Medical Center at Tel Hashomer, which is the largest hospital in the Middle East. It is also a leader in medical research and innovation.
