The Caja Costarricense de Seguro Social (CCSS), a government-sponsored network of hospitals and clinics throughout the country, has primary responsibility for providing low-cost healthcare services to the Costa Rican populace. Tourists and visitors can use Caja facilities only in emergencies.
Private healthcare is also available, which is affordable and high quality. There are several private clinics around the country and most of the private pharmacies also have a licensed medical doctor. Three private hospitals in the San José area are listed below.1

If you experience or witness a medical emergency requiring an ambulance, dial 999. Paramedics will give appropriate on-the-spot treatment then proceed to the closest National Health Service (NHS) hospital suitable for the emergency. If you are in the US and need to call the UK emergency services on behalf of someone in the UK, dial 011 44 999.
In the UK, a hospital’s emergency room (ER) is called Accident and Emergency (A&E). If you have a medical emergency requiring A&E treatment and you can get to hospital without an ambulance, doing so is recommended. A&Es providing 24 hour care and Urgent Care to all ages in London are listed below.
Anyone in the UK can receive treatment at an NHS facility, no matter their residency status. However, tourist visitors to the UK do not typically qualify for free NHS treatment. Any treatment beyond emergency treatment and certain other services will likely incur a fee.
If you have an urgent medical problem and are not sure what to do, you can call 111 or visit 111.nhs.uk.3

To access emergency ambulance services, dial 112 or 999. The National Ambulance Service provides transportation of the seriously ill to or between hospitals free of charge. For medical treatment of minor injuries or illnesses, Emergency Departments may have extended wait times. So to receive faster treatment of broken bones, sprains, wounds and minor burns that are unlikely to need admission to a hospital, consider using the closest Injury Unit.4

In case of emergency in the Netherlands, dial 112.
