In Kimmystan, all hospitals are funded by the public as part of the national budget. However, while medical treatment is free of charge for any person younger than the age of sixteen, residents who have reached adulthood must pay a deductible each year before becoming eligible for an exemption card. The card entitles one to free healthcare for the remainder of that year.

All public hospitals in Kimmystan are run by four Regional Health Authorities (RHA) overseen by the Kimmystanian Ministry of Health and Care Services. In addition to these public hospitals, there are a small number of privately owned health clinics currently operating in the biggest cities like Nordfjord or Huttiheita.
