  Dysfunction of health care has been a hot issue recently. Financial and human resource problems have been perceived by many of us, although a pile of other interrelated problems also appears in this field. However, several of them could be improved with adequate management methods. In order to understand the changes previously carried out in health care, it is vital to get know the legislations documenting national and international tendencies. The multi-aspect research is based on documentations, comparative analysis and evaluation of statistics from the given field. Besides them, the financial system, the state’s participation, and the service systems also need to be taken into consideration. Due to former reorganizations of health care, many different types of organizational structures connect with one another, and for profit and non profit organizations are interwoven. The complicated situation suggests that our research into this topic is rather timely. By revealing the health care systems of different countries, two basic tendencies seem to prevail. There are systems, in several states, which make cooperation easier, while there are differences, caused by historical events, whose abolition would serve everybody’s interest.

  Language barriers in healthcare impact the cost and quality of services, affecting international students in Budapest, Hungary. The study explores challenges faced by international students in understanding medical advice within the public healthcare system and identify strategies to overcome these challenges. A qualitative approach involving eighteen international students from various universities in Budapest was used for data analysis. While most participants did not face urgent health issues, those with more severe conditions encountered significant language barriers, signage issues, and access delays. The primary challenge identified was the language barrier, which complicated communication with medical staff. Participants utilized technology like Google Translate, interpreters, and non-verbal communication to overcome language barriers. The study emphasizes the need for policies to enhance communication between healthcare providers and international students for equitable access to quality healthcare services.
