Of these 1 public facility (state, region, city), the rest are private practices and companies.

A private practice doesn’t mean paid care: most have contracts with the health insurance companies. The register doesn’t say which practices have a contract with your insurer, check with the practice or the insurer.

We count the places where care is provided (practice, polyclinic, hospital), not individual doctors, per 1,000 residents of the 2021 census. We can’t count paediatricians per child for a neighbourhood, you’ll find them for the district.
