Hi Jessica,

What nationalities are you and your husband? If you're EU citizens, you should be able to get free or subsidised healthcare. Either way, you may want to arrange private insurance if your husband has a chronic condition, either as an addition to EU health insurance or instead of it, if you don't have it. You can read more on the Expat Arrivals Healthcare in Cyprus page.
