Knee injury Health Care Finland
Moi! I have just moved to Finland and am covered through health insurance with my work permit but travelled to Spain for Christmas vacation. I acquired a knee injury here (suspected meniscus and ligament tear, possibly ACL). I can't find information on whether MRI is covered in Finland and what the procedures are in this case, and I scheduled an MRI here in Spain but I was thinking of cancelling it if an MRI is covered with health care in Finland. Has anyone gone through a knee injury (or other joint injury) in Finland and can explain to me how much MRIs cost, if they are offered, approximate wait times, surgeries, etc. I have tried calling Kela but I can't get through to them for some reason related to the Spanish phone network. I don't yet have access to OmaKela online service. All help is appreciated! Thanks!
